Fer109 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 In mission editor, I am not able to select manually any MK-20 among bombs options. However, I can see there are some preset loadboubts with Rockeyes. So, why are we not able to select them manually? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razo+r Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Create first a new loadout, then you can select them AFAIK you can't really change preset loadouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazonXD Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 They seemed to be removed from the sim for some reason for player selection. I've noticed this a long time ago. An alternative (basically upgraded version, successor) is the CBU-87. You CANNOT equip the Rockeyes even if you made your own payload as Razor stated.

Fer109 Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share Posted September 1, 2016 Thank you for your replies. I have duplicated the preset loadoubt with 8 MK-20s, and then I modified it preserving as many MK-20 as I need. So, I can fly and drop MK-20s with no problems, but it is quite unusual to have to do in this way. No reason for not able to select them manually.

Winston 60 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I used to use the Mk-20's in the A-10A but in some recent patch I noticed that they have been made pretty much useless for anything other than infantry. Had a hard time destroying lightly armoured vehicles and even trucks so now opting for the CBU-87 and 97. Anyone still killing lightly armoured vehicles with the Mk-20's?

I've tried them with the M2000, where they currently serve as a placeholder for the french cluster bomb and they seem pretty weak.

Winston 60 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) I've tried them with the M2000, where they currently serve as a placeholder for the french cluster bomb and they seem pretty weak. In the A-10A I can't even kill a column of unarmoured trucks with them anymore. A direct hit with 4 Mk-20's on a string of 6 trucks and all 6 survive? If I drop CBU-87's or CBU-97's then all are killed. :dunno: Edited September 2, 2016 by Winston 60 CPU: i7 980x @ 4.2GHz RAM: 24gb Corsair Vengeance MB: Gigabyte Sniper X58 w/onboard Soundblaster X-Fi HD: SanDisk 480gb SSD OS: Win7 Pro 64bit VIDEO CARD: EVGA GTX 980ti FTW MONITOR: LG 34" Ultrawide 2560x1080 MP SERVER: ibuypower i7-4810MQ w/Win7 Home 64bit GEAR: Saitek X-52 Pro; Combat Rudder Pedals; Throttle Quadrants.

Fer109 Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 Thank you for the related post and the opinions. Now it is cristal clear. So, removed after one update, but still alive in loadoubts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazonXD Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Thank you for the related post and the opinions. Now it is cristal clear. So, removed after one update, but still alive in loadoubts. Yep, the model is still there and the default payloads haven't changes, so they're still there in the payloads but you can't equip them by yourself anymore.
