EA-18G / AARGM Captive Carry

Not as glamorous as Hi-AOA, not as hazardous as Flutter, but somebody has to be the one who first takes the store airborne, and the fact is that you can't get the air defense suppression mission done without something to threaten the emitters with, whether photons, digital worms, or high explosives.  (I tend to go for the latter, but that's just an old Phantom Driver talking, so it's basically hot air.)
