[WAD]Units Attacking with Weapons they do not have

Post by JTurbine »

Hello All,
Hopefully someone can help answer my question. First of all, great game! I love it, reminds me of
the old Harpoon II (but much better).

Now, my Problem. I have a Scenario which models the opening salvo of the '67 Six Day War. In it,
There is a Group of 4 Mystere IVA aircraft armed with Runway cratering bombs. The loadout is:

2x Condib 70
2x 480l Drop tank

Yet, the aircraft are also firing SNEB 68mm Rockets(See expenditures below):

20x EU.2 250kg GPB
92x 20mm Hispano Mk5 x 2 Burst [50 rnds]
144x SNEB 68mm Rocket
8x Condib 70
24x 30mm DEFA 552 x 2 Burst [50 rnds]

Why are they firing These rockets, and how can I make them stop?

Thanks,
Rex

The 68mmSNEB is being listed as an internal rocket pod. I show them as loaded even selecting a gun only long range configuration. Not sure if that is a bug or the rockets are always considered loaded.
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!

Hi guys reading about this one, the rockets were normally carried as a secondary ground attack weapon

Welcome, and thank you for your kind words.

Jim is correct. Some versions of the Mystere IVA had an internal rocket pod (retractable, under the belly) which was always carried. In the CWDB database, the French version does not carry the rocket pod whereas the Indian and Israeli versions do.
