Aircraft Hardpoints: Aircraft hardpoints are provided in symmetrical pairs except for centerline positions (CL), which are single. Ordnance is mounted in pairs (but may be fired singly) on UW and FUS hardpoints, with the associated double payload weight. However, especially in cases where the aircraft has only two total positions, it is not necessary to place an identical load on each side, rather a balanced load.
