Suggestion: Make ALE-39 Loadout and/or LAU-138 similar to RAZBAM M-2000C

I really like how RAZBAM was able to model the countermeasure system for the Mirage with the Eclair pod's loadout being selectable through the pylon menu. I think the F-14 can go for a similar approach since, iirc, moving the sliders on the loadout page for the chaff and flare will mess up your CM loadout while you have to edit your ALE-39 loadout through a Ground Crew menu.

So I think you can make the LAU-138 AIM-9s their own weapon (similar to the Magics with the DDM and how you don't use the Mission Editor for this option anymore) and make a pylon "9" for the ALE-39 loadouts that we have in the Ground Crew menu already. A helpful quality of life addition that could exist is that the kneeboard also showing the initially loaded countermeasure loadout number (Kneeboard shows you have 0 Chaff from ALE-39 but 40 Chaff from the LAU-138 and 60 flares from the ALE-39).
