Allows the AIM-120A to be mounted on pylons 8B and 1B utilizing a single or double rack. Based on the AIM-120 development tests at the Pacific Missile Test Center (PMTC).
Allows the AIM-120A AMRAAM to be mounted onto the shoulder pylons (1B and 8B) for the Heatblur F-14 Tomcat with either a single (Sparrow pylon) or double rack.
This mod is based on the images of the PMTC F-14A during the AIM-120 development along with the image of the unused double AIM-120 rack mounted on an F-14. The AIM-120A in this mod uses the older API and has a higher susceptibility to countermeasures than the AIM-120B.

EDIT 2022-09-29: With the increase in derivative mods, I am asking that you please at least credit me when you make them and post them on places like r/hoggit or the DCS forums (and maybe also tell me that you did make a derivative mod). I did spend a lot of time trying to make things work for this mod to actually work. Thanks!

Bugs: The missile uses the older missile API so it might miss or do super harsh turns. When using the double racks, the missile count will be incorrect since the missile count is determined by used pylons. Missiles on the double racks fire in a weird way. AIM-120Bs and Cs are not supported since they will crash your game once you attempt to fire them.
