@FormerCarp5981 (Aviv) posted a new topic, subject "Indiafoxtecho F35A". It read:

   Hi there, how can I use the weapon in this fighter to drop a bomb or shooting a missiles.  
    One more qeustion, I have an issue with my bind flaps. I toggel the spoilers to one button and other to flaps but only the spoilers work while the flaps not working, only from the cockpit. In others plane it works.  
    Thanks  
    Dylan

    About the weapons: these are only available in planes bought via vendors outside the MSFS marketplace. And those wapons are non-functional, they only add to the weight of the plane. You cannot fire or drop them. All because of Asobo / Microsoft company policy of not allowing weapons in the game.

    Well, the H145 heli can fire missiles and spray lead…

So @CasualClick (A.J.) replied

    In the sim?

So @BanKhokklan replied

    Yes in the sim.

    Apparently, turns out I have a few reports that my mod also works to make the weapons appear on marketplace version of the F-35A.

    You can also fire the guns of the MilViz Corsair, unless it's the Market Place version. No weapons there.

Then @BanKhokklan said

    Yes you can, but it only fires blinds, no impact.

After which, @NeoKingRthur (Neo King Arthur) added

    It's a civilian flight simulator though. The simulation engine doesn't allow impacts. So any effects applied to any aircraft are only visual and audio simulations, but not actual combat simulations. Regardless of whether it is marketplace content or community-based addons.
    
    If you want combat simulations, this isn't the sim to use. There's Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator, which is the really old one, or just DCS World for the current one.
