This is a new object to replace the older version of the self propelled guns M-109, K55, and 2S5 in FAF Korea...

This new object is an armored vehicle and can be used in ground vehicle groups...

It uses the standard artillery gun in FAF, but I have make the shell smaller in the latest version to make it more realeastic...

Hope you enjoy it! (This is the winter version, but there is a summer version with approapiate cammo for the FAF Korea Summer release also)


M-109A6 Paladin (Winter)...

It will be included in the next releases...

I think the FAB-250 is the smallest SH in FA as far as things you would want to use for that sort of thing. We'll have to wait and see what he says.

You got it Kap... Its the F250.sh

Now the final artillery vehicles are much improved over these you see here...

THe new skin blends the barrell into the turret much better and now there is a seperate version for the Russian 2S5, modelling its different tank tracks and bogey wheels...

Plus their is also now a M992 FASSV reload vehicle without the cannon barrel to mate up with the M-109A6 Paladin... since they always are grouped together for relading during firing...

I will post some new shots of them on Moanday, plus I added details to the turrets like hatches, fuel cans and gear in bundles...

How many can be held per ejection rack? How many in the bombays of the F-22 and the JSF? How about the big bombers?

I don't know to be honest, I would imagine you could hold two in the same place as one MK-82 given the smaller diameter of the GBU-39 over the MK-82.

But baring from what this place says not many

4 in the F-22

They look like they are the same diameter of the AMRAAM, but half the length and that they have snapout wings on the lower casing...

Very interesting indeed...

And the F-22 has 4 PER BAY for a total weapons load of 8 GBU-38/Bs... and 2 AMRAAMs and 2 Sidewinders(1 in each side bay)... not a bad loadout for a precision stealth strike...

You didnt look hard enough there Cent... That rack inside the bay of the F-22 has FOUR of the smaller ordnance... 2 behind the first two... each is half the length of an AMRAAM and you can see it takes up the full length of the bay with two sets of two in each bay, (a total of 4 per bay) replacing two AMRAAMs...

See the pic below...

Image

That is one of the two main weapons bays on the belly of the F/A-22... It now holds 1 AMRAAM and 4 GBU-39/Bs. The second set in a row behind the first pair...

"The Devil's in the details"...
