Yes indeed, twin weapon racks on underwing pylons - hence they would go with the EMERG JET leaving you with the belly AMRAAM and your wing tip weapons.

I can’t remember if there were any stringent jettison limits - I can only imagine a twin rack tumbles in a way that a drop tank or A-S store might not.

As an aside - I’ve flown completely unguarded EMERG JET - no time for priming/ uncovering in the ‘poor launch/ soft cat’ cases - technical point only. Have a great day!
