EA-18G Growler
======================================================================================================================
"What's the difference compared to other Growler vismod?"
Proper dogtooth on the leading edges and wing fences. Added CCS and SATCOM Antennas on the spine.
Features 3 different version;
- Type A - "Proper-ish Growler":
- Permanent ALQ-99 Jammer Pods on the aircraft
- Permanent/Undroppable Drop Tanks on the aircraft
- *Gun Port Covered (Still fires gun, but no brrtt sound or Muzzle Flash)
- IEWS as drop tank function (Hold the weapon switch button to activate IEWS) (Due to it's drop tank replacements, it can only work when your aircraft is somewhat level)
- AMRAAM as MSL (Still function as normal MSL, only visual changed)
- LAGM-HCAA-QAAM
* "But why?" Cause changing the drop tank function to any weapon will force the gun SFX and Muzzle Flash to play despite you not firing.
- Type B "AC-ish Growler":
- No Permanent ALQ-99
- Drop Tanks (Under each wings)
- Gun Not Covered
- IEWS-LAGM-6AAM
