Su-24 weapons question


Recommended Posts

I'm working on the Trumpeter 1/48 Fencer and almost to the point where I have to start considering what kind of weapons to put on it.  

 

I have a nice array of resin candidates from North Star, Kazan,  and Advanced Modeling. Some of the larger weapons like the KAB-1500L, Kh-59, and Kh-29s will limit how many stores I can use due to their (real world) size and weight.   On the lighter -side, I can load up a bunch of smaller FAB bombs on MERs carried on the belly and large rockets (S-25 series) or more FAB general purpose bombs.  More bombs equals more PITA to get them aligned. 

 

Do you have any suggestions on an interesting loadout while maintaining a sense of accuracy?

 

Thanks,

Hi Chris, here's a possibility, with the Kh-58 anti-radar Missile and a Phantasmagoria pod.

Laser guided bombs (one shown, but two side by side should be possible)

And most interesting, a couple of pics from Airliners.net with mock anti-radiation missile Kh-31, the necessary Phantasmagoria pod in the centreline aft station, and a laser guided bomb in the centreline forward station.
