F-102 Weapons bay question


Recommended Posts

The missiles were launched in salvos, so if the IR missiles were selected all three were launched, which meant all the doors opened.  The same was true of the radar missiles until the AIM-26 was added.  One of things driving this was the limited amount of compressed air to open the doors (same for the F-106) another was the low Pk of the AIM-4.
