echanics, the Kiowa Warrior’s weapons system cables and connectors are made
for a snug Ft. If you force a Ft, you’ll force a break.
Before
hooking
cables
into
aircraft weapons system connectors,
visually check the cable pins and
the connector receptacles. Make
sure you have a match before you
hook up.
If your aircraft has been through
Reset, it is especially important
to check connectors. What may
have matched up Fne before may
not now.
If you force a mismatched cable and connector together, you’ll bend or break
the cable’s pins when you try to muscle it in place. These internal pins are easily
damaged, so the armament folks will have to take apart the cable to repair it or
replace the entire cable, depending on the type of damage.
So avoid the agony of defeat by making sure you have the right match Frst. Then
go easy when hooking up the HellFre missile system, the M3P machine gun or rocket
launcher to your aircraft.
