2 years ago Would some ASUW loadouts be possible as some prgram concept art showed GBU-12s? Other fan art has included JSOW, JDAM, etc. Could probably use F-22 and F-35 options as a basis.

Not a priority, but it'd be great to have a F-24 able to carry the latest AAMs and with the same two-way data-link as the latest F-22A.
