A-4E Under Wing Options?

Sam1,

Five hardpoints are what the A-4E featured; the 2 outboard wing hardpoints could carry up to 500 lbs. worth of stores. The photos I have usually show drop tanks on the inboard wing hardpoints. I also have photos of Marine A-4E's with 1 napalm canister on each hardpoint; one photo that has a Multiple Ejector Rack (MER) on the inboard stations and a TER (triple ejector rack) with 2 250 lb bombs on the outside wing stations. If you are showing buddy refueling you would have a centerline buddy refuelling tank and 2 drop tanks on the inboard wing stations. You can accurately model a full MER on the centerline and 2 drop tanks on the inboard wing stations.

Oh, yes; while you are at it, they were painted Gloss Gull Grey on top and Gloss white on bottom. In the 80's the Marines' A-4s were transitioning to Ghost Grey; some A-4s were painted in flat Gull Grey/Ghost grey.
