marcinko Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Hello, can someone tell me what loadout this Eagle has ? Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zark Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 (edited) ...2 GBU-12...GBU-31...3 GBU-38. The -38s and -31 are with radar sensor fuse...I am really confused with the missile on the wing pylon...it looks like Amraam ...is not AIM-120...from a modellers stand point, it looks like "wrong scale" Harm...

marcinko Posted April 21, 2016 Author Share Posted April 21, 2016 (edited) Thank you man ! One question though, the GBU-38 & 31 aren`t they the Laser version of JDAM ? Edited April 21, 2016 by marcinko Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Most definitely an AIM-120. The later versions have "clipped" fins to fit on platforms with internal weapons bays. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
graves_09 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 (edited) Thank you man ! One question though, the GBU-38 & 31 aren`t they the Laser version of JDAM ? No, standard JDAM, 500 lbs and 2000 lbs respectively. Edited April 21, 2016 by graves_09 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
marcinko Posted April 21, 2016 Author Share Posted April 21, 2016 Is there an aftermarket Weapons set with those ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
strikeeagle801 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 It's an AIM-120C. The other wing would more than likely have an AIM-9M on the outer station. GBU-31's can be found in Hasegawa Weapons Set D. Wolfpack Design makes GBU-38's. You can also find them in the new releases of Academy F-15E and F-15I's. Aaron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EagleAviation Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Eduard makes superb sets for AIM-120C and GBU-12 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Hasegawa's weapons set D+E also have these bombs and missiles. The missile is an AIM-120C or -D, with the clipped wings as already mentioned. The AIM-9M is not used anymore, being replaced by the AIM-9X. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zark Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Well..it is AIM-120...I better book an appointment with my optician... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Platycqb Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Thank you man ! One question though, the GBU-38 & 31 aren`t they the Laser version of JDAM ? They would have a black/dark nose if they were LJDAM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The AIM-9M is not used anymore, being replaced by the AIM-9X. Did the -9X finally make it's way to the Strike Eagle? Thought they were still using -9M's until recently?

Finn Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 If you look carefully you can see the wing of an AIM-9M sticking up on the other side. Jari Quote Link to post Share on other sites
strikeeagle801 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) Hasegawa's weapons set D+E also have these bombs and missiles. The missile is an AIM-120C or -D, with the clipped wings as already mentioned. The AIM-9M is not used anymore, being replaced by the AIM-9X. AIM-9X is not operational on the F-15E yet. Besides, this picture is a few years old. Aaron EDIT: I just did some research, and there is nothing out there that supports the F-15E having AIM-9X yet. They ARE starting to get JHMCS, which is a step in the right direction, but nothing about AIM-9X yet. Truthfully, I doubt they will go through the trouble. The AIM-9M is still a capable missile, and the F-15E is not tasked with air-to-air...The F-15E has the capability of being a great dog fighter, but it isn't used that way in the USAF. Missiles are defensive-only. Edited April 23, 2016 by strikeeagle801 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
