Zero77 Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Ironic; That loadout does show something unique: The fuel tanks are WRM fuel tanks. WRM tanks were widely used by F-15E during OIF. Showtime 100 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showtime 100 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 WRM tanks were widely used by F-15E during OIF. Yes; During OIF. How often do F-15Es use them in general? Zero77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Those aren't fuzes. They're ogive nose plugs and do nothing more than fill the cavity in the nose of the bomb. For those that are sticklers for accuracy, the DJ Parkins bombs are badly misshapen. The bombs do not taper that much to a smaller diameter from the lugs to the aft end. Dave Thanks Dave. Never did sort out the fuze conundrum. So, these Mk.82-based bombs still use the M904 vaned fuzes then, including the wacky tail one mounted on the side? The Videoaviation stuff is growing apace!

Zero77 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Yes; During OIF. How often do F-15Es use them in general? According to reference pictures and what has been said in a previous thread, i'd say : almost only during OIF. WRM tanks were widely available and cheaper than the standard tanks, so they were just used instead of the standard ones. http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=55570 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
