The Zuni rockets should stand out of LAU-10 pod.

I have noticed that the Zuni Rockets is not sticking out from the pods as per IRL.
Tip of the rockets should be clearly visible and outside of the pod.

Hey @Schmidtfire. I got some precisions from devs and I searched the exact Zuni rocket used in DCS. I found it and... its length is slightly shorter than the LAU-10 pod. This means DCS is correct.

  • LAU-10 C/A and LAU-10 D/A pods are 2,41 m long
  • DCS Zuni is a Mk.24 Mod 0/1 warhead (general purpose) with a Mk.188 Mod 0 fuze and a Mk.71 motor. Total length: 2,40 m
  • Pictures from the other thead show a Mk.32 Mod 0 warhead (anti-tank / anti-personnel), a Mk.188 Mod 0 fuze and a Mk.71 motor. Total length: 2,69 m

DCS Encyclopedia data is wrong. I asked for a fix.
