Razor5-1 Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) It's possible to add the Aim-120 to the wingtip of an F/A-18C in the sim. This I believe is not possible in RL due to wing folding/weight limits. I'v never seen this in real life and pretty sure it's impossible. Edited November 12, 2012 by Razor5-1

Razor5-1 Posted November 13, 2012 Author Posted November 13, 2012 (edited) Thats an F-16, which of course can because it's got a single piece, non-folding wing. Edited November 13, 2012 by Razor5-1
71st_Mastiff Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Thats an F-16 yes it is, and I just posted one pic example you can click on the link and find other F18 examples in the wikie....:thumbup: "any failure you meet, is never a defeat; merely a set up for a greater come back", W Forbes.

Eddie Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 No, the Hornet/Superhornet cannot carry AIM-120s on the wingtip stations, they are used for SRMs, such as the AIM-9, only.
