could the JH-7 carry 57mm rocket pods as one of its secondary armaments? some sites do mention that JH-7 could indeed carry 57mm rockets and they even specify a rocket pod model: HF-7C/D 57 mm
but is there any more specific information about this? like what is the capacity of the mentioned pod? what does it look like? my guess is that the rocket pod is the 16 x 57mm or something similar I have tried to find the designations for the 57mm rocket pods but I found nothing and images are confusing with the designs of the pods, I’d imagine that JH-7 would be able to carry them but JH-7A would defintely ditch them in order to give preference to better weaponry
this rocket pod seems to maybe be the correct one but who knows
I know it’s not a reliable source, but along with the Su-27/Su-30, China also bought some Kh-29TEs, so technically the only thing left to know is if the JH-7A has the system to launch them.
seeker will most likely be incapable of locking moving targets at that far, and variant we have in game is TV, so i think it can stay, it’ll be like Kh-59
Also did they really butchered the 11.7 CAS just to add another vehicle .3 higher with all the missing ordnance from the A? JH-7A [12.0] vs JH-7A2 [12.3]
The only nerf kj8602 afaik should actually get is rwr elevation coverage being changed to ±30 degrees from ±45, other than that im pretty sure it’s accurate
