The A-4K is now bombable ready. I've improved the gun firing and tracer positioning, also added an aiming reticle for the HUD which can be viewed by pressing "I".

You might like to contact OPRF, on Discord, who have a very advanced radar, damage, and missile code, imo superior to Bombable.

SplitDecision, firstly, great work. It looks very good.

If you'd like to integrate the OPRF stuff, feel free to send me a PM. We (probably) have the most advanced radar and missile scripts in FG. It is separate from bombable, however they can both be installed on the same plane simultaneously.

The A-4K now has fireable rockets with associated clickable panel hotspots. In addition to this there is interior panel lighting (visible at night) .

Is there some magic going on with positioning the head? Using LinuxTrack on Windows I get positioned far outside the cockpit. I do not have this issue with other planes.

Interesting... I've never used LinuxTrack before. I'll look into it.

i don't think so considering the linked repo, above, was last update in 2019... contrary to the wiki page for the craft, there is not one in FGAddon, either... at least, not this one that i can find...
there are two older A4 variants using the LaRCsim/UIUC and YASim FDMs... i think they are only the A4D (A-4C) but the A4F is mentioned in their description in the launcher...
