Does anyone know which type of Cannon pack the Matador uses the USMC style 25mm pack or the British style twin 30mm "ADEN gun"pack? just want to know because all the reference photos I have are of Matadors at airshows,and they do not have any of the Gun packs or underwing stores loaded other than fuel tanks.Thanx in advance

I think as standard,they are equipped with the 25mm GAU-12 Equalizer.The earlier AV-8S Matador Is had the twin 30mm ADENs,just like the AV-8A and "C" models.

IIRC,they're not carried often because of weight or drag.Something along those lines.And the 25mm pack is pretty bulky,so it might make sense.
