Any idea why the JH-7A2 cant carry LD-10’s on the same wing station as the PL-12?

The PL-12’s are nice, but I find myself often having to run a full load of CM-102’s for a SEAD run, and then RTB to come back with a full load of ground attack munitions since the JH-7A2 only really has 4 workable ground attack stations, and if I missed a nearby SAM on my SEAD run, my strike run is ruined. Being able to carry 2x LD-10 + 4x ground attack munitions would really help it feel less clunky in Nuclear Escalation…

Pretty sure is just gaijin thing…shouldnt be a problem since the difference from PL12 to LD10 is only the seekerhead

Weight and lenght are different too

The body still the same… Slightly weight and bigger size only on the seekerhead and not remotely a difference that can influence not being loaded…

Could those pics be used to add the LD-10 as an option for the JH-7A2? It currently doesnt have access to them in-game, which make it an awkward aircraft in Nuclear Escalation

gaijin’s logic is wherever PL-12 can be used then LD-10 can too (look at twin centerline pylon on J-10C) so its worth a shot, high chance of being accepted since JH-7A2 is unfinished as fuck

Why is it unfinished? Its missing some cruise missiles that it, and maybe the broadband yj

just a joke as its missing quite a bit of easy fixes, feels like a rushed work even with gaijin standards
