Looks cool. :) Don´t think I´m able to do it justice.. ;)

 

What weapons can the Finnish Hawks carry again?

And one specialty: the 12,7 mm VKT machine gun was sometimes carried in the gun pod in the 80s.

 

Cheers,

Hello!

 

It is the British Aden pod. In the early period (~up to 1991 or so) the Finnish half inch VKT mg (see Antti's post) was installed in it as an alternative. Cheaper ammunition etc.

30 mm Aden if in QRA. We loaded it once for a scramble at Kauhava AFB while I was there.

 

Cheers,

Kari
