Mainstay Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I have seen tornado's Carry 4 on a single ship but i cant seem to find any info on how many the hornet can Carry on a single ship
Dusty Rhodes Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Two. And the Tornado's were prolly carrying ALARM missiles.

Dusty Rhodes Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Good info Trev, I was talking about the E model. Seems I was wrong on the others. Thanks!

Vekkinho Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 F/A-18D Wild Weasel could carry only 2 HARMs... Tornado isn't equipped with HARM, they've got ALARMs. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Eddie Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Tornado isn't equipped with HARM, they've got ALARMs. In the case of the Tornado GR.Mk4 yes, but the Tornado ECR used by Germany and Italy does indeed carry HARM and not ALARM. As for the C model Hornet, 4 AGM-88 loads have been at least tested, but never used in service AFAIK, much like with the Viper.
Mainstay Posted December 11, 2012 Author Posted December 11, 2012 Thx for all the info guys, still cant find any picture of a (S)Hornet carrying 4 Harms
Aries Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] ...the few, the proud, the remaining...

Aries Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Acually... this is my prefered SEAD airframe/configuration of choice: :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] ...the few, the proud, the remaining...
ShockerGuy Posted December 18, 2012 Posted December 18, 2012 (edited) The Growler can carry 4, two on the outer underwing pylons and two under the fuselage in a conformal configuration. Not sure about the Bug or Superbug.../QUOTE] Not accurate. The Growler (and E/F) cannot carry HARM on the fuselage stations. Those are for AMRAAM carriage only. A Growler's standard combat load out is 3 ALQ-99 pods, 2 drops, 2 AIM-120, and 2 AGM-88. Edited December 18, 2012 by ShockerGuy Quote
ShockerGuy Posted December 19, 2012 Posted December 19, 2012 And as a follow up, the legacy Hornet will normally carry 3 and E/F will carry 4 if required.
