You will most likely not use the centre tank as it kills a lot of speed. Most f-16’s flying in the real world will only carry 2 under the wings

 

 

This isn't real life, also they still do fly with them in certain cases. :thumbup:

If I’m bomb trucking to a nearby AO (as most are in DCS) a centre tank would be useful.

Real world, a lot of units use centerline tanks during the BFM/air to air phase of training.

I think the Jammer can go centerline or on a chin mount like the TGP. So you will be able to carry TGP, Jammer and Centerline tank.

 

 

Edit: I was wrong on jammer pod station placement.

With how long the ECM pod is, the MLG gear door would snap it off if chin mounted. It can only be centerline mounted.
