 *Use ATFLIR instead of Litening, as (IRL) the ATFLIR is carrier compatible and the Litening is not.
 *Do not use AGM-65F (Infrared Maverick) and AGM-62 Walleye in modern missions as those were phased out in the 90's.
-*Double ugly loadouts (carrying 1 centerline tank and 1 wing tank) is very common. The wing tank should be on the right wing, in order to not obscure TPod (which sits on the left cheek station) line of sight.
