Looking at your design, I would be tempted to cram another identical IWB immediately behind the current one, but that would lengthen the fuselage somewhat and also throw boff the centre of gravity. If they had folding fins, you could fire them out like the earlier SRAAM and would only need openings front and rear in the pod. The door opens to 90 degrees and is activated in milliseconds. Three in each side of the main weapons bay with the center missile staggered ahead of the inboard and outboard missiles. Requisitions will be submitted in accordance with Service requisitioning procedures.
