Right, so MK5 HEAT rockets wont fire. Probably any rockets.

OK. So I got 4 pods 19X MK5 HEAT on four underwing stations and 150 gallon tank on centerline. 2X AIM-9P5 on points.

From About 2K feet slant distance to TGT, in 30 deg dive at 350 KIAS.

Pylon Power ON (on right panel) with Tank pump ON

Weapon pylons ON for rocket stations. In up position.

Weapon selector in Rockets

Master Arm (Guns) ON in UP.

Pipper  set to Manual -12 mil depression.

Flaps up, gear up

ROCKETS DO NOT FIRE with  First Detent, Second Detent (Press to SHoot), Weapon Release.

Some confusion here:

  • PYLONS switch is only for fuel and has no effect on rocket employment either way
  • GUNS MSL & CAMR switch is only for guns, missiles, and camera and has no effect on rocket employment either way
  • Trigger only controls camera and guns and has no effect on rocket employment either way

Here's a MP track showing rocket use both FFAR and Hydra 70 with HEAT warhead. Indeed the DM/DG settings will inhibit rocket firing.
