Restricted weapons on a carrier, can't load fuel tanks?

[Mr_sukebe]

Hoping that someone can assist.

I've created a fairly simple mission (attached), with a carrier group in the Black Sea and have deliberately restricted weapons on the carrier to cold war period, i.e. no Aim120s, missing most guided weapons etc.

What I'm a little confused about is why when I jump into the mission, I can't add fuel tanks to the F14s or F18, as I've very much NOT restricted any type of fuel tank.

Any thoughts?

Quick update on the above.  I changed the mission settings such that there were no weapon restrictions on the carrier and sure enough, was able to add fuel tanks.

Any thoughts on the above?  Does feel like it's not working as expected.

It works on my end when I create a new mission.

Your mission seems to be struck by this bug.

My thanks.  Does appear that I'm suffering from the same reported issue.  Apologies, hadn't found the older thread when I ran a search.

Are there any workarounds, or is it just grin and bear it until fixed?

Here's the tip to fix your mission:

I'll report this issue since it has return (it was fixed earlier this year).

Thanks for providing a workaround.
