Two types with a "600 lb special weapon box" sat by my left elbow for a couple of hundred hours or more of over-water trials flying. Does that count?

Oh, and one type for 50 hours or so with live "600 lb special weapons" loaded on the aft stations in the bomb bay (which, when doing trials armament loading line checks in the early hours at St Mawgan I wasn't allowed to turn around and look at, despite the nose of the damned things touching the back of my head as I was double checking the parachute lanyards and instrumentation connections on the trials torpedoes loaded on station 9).
