CATM Captive Training Missiles v2.1 by Eagle Dynamics & Nightstorm

Compatible with DCS 2.7.8.16140 Open beta as of 11/18/21.

************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
The models and textures for these missiles is already in DCS as well as some of the required code.  However, they are not currently enabled or available.  Unti they are, this mod will serve as an interim solution.  It will be updated as needed based on OB updates.
************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

F-16C & F-16 CFT Mod versions

_CATM Mod for CFT Mod Version A = CFT Version A
_CATM Mod for CFT Mod Version B = CFT Version B

Default CFT Mod Version is A:  CFT_Mod_2.0.1 (digitalcombatsimulator.com)

Just copy the F-16C.lua file from your version of choice and overwrite the one located in .\CoreMods\aircraft\F-16C.

A backup of the original is provided in the _Backup folder.

Added ALQ-131 and ALQ-184 ECM pods to stock F-16C center station.

******************************************************************

FA-18C

Same thing, file goes into the \CoreMods\aircraft\FA-18C folder.

A backup of the original is provided in the _Backup folder.

Air to Air Captive Training Missiles.

CATM-9M
CATM-9X
CATM-120C

Added ALQ-131 and ALQ-184 ECM pods to stock F-16C center station.

Air to Ground Captive Training Missiles.

CATM-88
TGM-65D
TGM-65E
TGM-65F
TGM-65G
TGM-65H
CATM-65K

Two new files are placed here:  .\CoreMods\aircraft\AircraftWeaponPack

A2A_Missiles.lua *******NOTE IMPORTANT******* (The same file is in the current F-22A SINGLE PLAYER enhancement mod, so if you have that installed DELETE one of them so it doesn't get loaded twice.  Things will break if you don't.)
A2G_Missiles.lua

A modified version of the entry.lua located in the same folder to load the new files.  A backup of the original is provided in the _Backup folder.

The A2A_Missiles.lua has other missiles defined in it as well, but they will only work on 3rd party mods like the F22 and they would have to be declared in those mods.

AIM-120A
AIM-120C-6
AIM-120C-7
AIM-120D

While your wingman could use these in the Viper or Hornet the player cannot as they are unknown to the avionics.  SDK would be required to correct that.
As such, they are not declared in either the F-16C.lua or the FA-18C.lua.

WILL NOT PASS IC since three core files are updated.

This mod is also now integrated into the CFT mod, linked above.  Both have been updated with changes to the AIM-9X series of missiles.

Updated names of AIM-9X series of missiles based on available information.

Names are:

AIM-9X-2, AIM-9X-2+(9L Replacement), AIM-9X-3.

Scripts and folders updated.  AIM-9X-3 thrust increased by 10% over the 9X-2+ as its expected to have a better rocket motor.  The values used for the 9X-2+ were the ones previously used for the 9X-3. 

The 9L Replacement is available in the CFT mod.

What about for the F/A-18C?

 

I've re-added the FA-18C LUA (updated version) to the CFT mod as all other modified files were already included.  I'll keep that file updated along with the rest.
