This Syrian Mig-21 bombing (How do)

[Hook47]

This has been explained by Novak before, the MiG-21Bis that we have access to doesn't posess this capability, the Syrian MiG-21 in question has received a modification that allows this to happen.

 

I speculated that it was something to do with an open circuit on the empty pylon making the release clamps inoperable but I never got confirmation one way or the other.

 

This.

 

My research into the topic leads me to believe that the MiG 21 being used in that film has received some hard wired modification to enable single bomb release, probably because the Syrians want to conserve ordinance on lower value targets. Normally a 21 would have to release pylons 1-2 or 3-4 at the same time. The rockets fire because they use different wiring and fire control mechanisms that still work with incorrect load-outs.

 

Short of hard modification, perhaps there is a fuse that can be pulled or a breaker tripped in the cockpit on the real steel to purposely avoid a pylon from releasing, but I would suspect this is a modification, since the Pylons 1-2 and 3-4 seems to be wired in the same systems from what I have read
