What's the maximum no. of AMRAAM FA2 can carry? It has 2 wing pylons,
and if it uses 2 double rail pylons, that would be 8 on 2 wings.
However, I've seen drawings with 2 AMRAAM on the fuselage. That makes
10 AMRAAM altogether!!! Wonder what other plane carry more AMRAAM than
FA2 apart from superbug?
The max number of AMRAAM missiles a Sea Harrier FA2 can carry is four,
one each under each outer wing pylon and the other two under the
fuselage.
The FA2's Blue Vixen radar is claimed to be capable of tracking 10
targets and sending guidance commands to four separately targeted
AMRAAMs in flight.
