vesthepes Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Hey guys, I need some help on Eurofighter armament. I'd like to know what would be the most probable full loadout on Spanish single seater. And if not full what is the most common one they sport around. thanks in advance Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paolo Maglio Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Till now I have only seen photos of them with AIM-9L and AIM-120B. Soon they will be ready for air to ground weapons too but I can't imagine the load other than Pawevays.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

spejic Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Spain switched from Sidewinder to IRIS-T a few years ago. Spain will also get the Meteor in a few years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST0RM Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I've only seen the QRA bird launch once during my time at Moron AB. It was carrying two wing tanks, and a pair of live AIM-9Ls. Hard to see if any AIM-120s were loaded due to the fuel tanks in the way. Normal day-to-day, the single seat were carried two wing tanks with a single training IRIS-T on an outer wing rail. The two-seater would go up clean, or in a combo of two wing or single center tank, with a pair of IRIS-Ts. Very mixable! Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Warthog85 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I have a picture of Eurofighter IPA4 11-91 with test GBU-48 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spejic Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 I have a picture of Eurofighter IPA4 11-91 with test GBU-48 11-91 is the Spanish test aircraft. It's going to have lots of weird stuff on it, sometimes for size and ground crew testing of items that can't fly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
