Really? Do explain how a Delta fit F-4 can also carry a gun...
D - 2 x wing tanks + I x centreline tank
4 - 4 x Sparrow / Sky Flash
4 - 4 x Sidewinder
+ - Fully loaded gun pod
8 - 8 x head sector missiles on board (implies that the 'winders are 9 Limas)
D4408 or C44+8 I can accept, but not D44+8.
I seem to recall that the F-4 fits were as follows;
A - No tanks
B - Centre Line Tank only
C - Wing Tanks only
D - Wing and Centre line tanks
4 - Sparrow/Skyflash
4 - Sidewinder
+ Gun with more than 50% ammunition
0 No Gun or less than 50% ammunition
The heaviest combat fit therefore being C44+
For Lightnings
F Mark 6
E Mark 3 or 5
G Mark 6 with overwing tanks
F20+ F6 with 2 x Redtops and Gun with 50% or more blah blah
E020 F3 with 2 x Firestreak and no gun
of course.
That's as much as I think I can recall, I never served in a CRC after Feb 1979 back at Portreath in 1988-90 the Hawks from Brawdy and Chivenor I don't recall having a similar fit code. It was just assumed they had winders and the maurser gun.
