Beautiful build! Recommend changing the positions of the AIM-9X with the AIM-120s. If you look at reference material, this loadout is "never" seen, due to wing flutter problems. It does not mean that you will find photos of this loadout, but it`s rare and mostly for loading/ off loading of weaponry. With a heavy load like this, wing flutter is not what you want as a driver 🙂

Thanks for your comments 👍
I think I'll have to live with this 'what-if' weaponry configuration as all the missiles are firmly super glued in place.
Don't want to take a change of breaking something when detaching.

I made an account to say this, but the Tip-RAAMs are correct. To my knowledge the Sidewinders were more "stable" under the wing and a lot of images you find of the F-16C has AMRAAMs on the tips, sidewinders on the outer pylon and any ordnance on the middle pylon, followed by fuel tanks on the inner wing pylon. Antti, you did a wonderful job, your ordnance layout is correct.

Yes Amraams on the wingtip is correct. The aim-9 on the wingtips actually creates wing futter. You can find a video of it on youtube. Always Amraams on the wingtip. Only time you see sidewiders on the tips if if thats all thats on the plane
