What are Heatblur's plans for the AGM-78 STARM

Someone on Hoggit posted this photo as well as the Falcon and Pave Drag.  Anyway I was wondering if HB can comment on the STARM. I would assume HB is working on a STARM for the A-6 however stashing it in the F-4 files doesn't make sense unless HB had/s something in the works for the STARM and Echo Phantom. There are only 2 versions of the Phantom which carried the STARM

The F-4G and Israeli F-4Es.

I don't expect to get a FF Geasel though I could see an AI one planned. Depending on the block the Israelis started with, I could see that as a possibility, if the difference between a STARM hammer and either our current spike bird or the upcoming DMAS bird is the mcGyver rigged refueling probe and STARMS then that could be a possibility.

I got a reply from Corbra stating that they were thinking about adding an Israeli Phantom if they could get the information on how they used the STARM. IMHO it would be ironic if the USAF was more open about the G than the Israelis were about the Hammer.

It may not be so ironic when considering that Israel upgraded Türkiye’s F-4Es to the “Terminator” specification- and those F-4s remain in service as I type this.
On the flip side, the USAF retired the F-4G over 21 years ago.

The AGM-78 was phased out of service in the 1980s, about 10 years before the G, So I would expect you would probably be able to get the information for what ever 1970s/80s configuration would be comparable to what HB has already planned. The Terminator I believe is the Turkish name for the Israeli Phantom 2000 upgrade.  EW tends to be one of the more secretive aspects of war hence the irony if that were the case.
