Okay, let’s talk about Yugoslavia and the SOKO J-22 Orao/IAR-93 Vultur. I'd like to apologise at this stage for the amount of time you're going to have to spend translating Serbian into your language of choice.
All variants - Should be armed with 2x GSh-23l. This shouldn't be confused with a misunderstanding of the Gast Principle, there is a twin-barrelled gun on the right hand side and a twin-barrelled gun on the left hand side. Additionally no 1500l tank is available, 800l centreline or 500l wing tanks were used instead.
New Weapon - NRZ-128 Munja. A Yugoslav 5" class rocket carried in four round pods on many Yugoslav aircraft. Comes in M-74 HE and M-80 HEAT flavours.

New Weapon - FAB-275 M91. A Yugoslav thermobaric bomb, weighing 275kg. The 'FAB' name is a deception, they were really fuel-air explosives. Can be fitted instead of a 280kg BL.775 to any Orao variant. Also used in a ground launched variant as a field expedient in the civil wars.

#2334 and #1653 J-22 Orao I - Should be renamed "IJ-22 Orao" and these aircraft should be armed. The J designation means Attacker, approximately contextually similar to Sturmovik, and the appended I means reconnaissance or scout, so they're recon/attack aircraft. The early J-22s without an afterburner were quickly relegated to reconnaissance roles, it's true, but they used a camera pod and they were perfectly capable of carrying normal loadouts if required in addition to their inbuilt guns. Attached below is a loadout chart which I'm afraid is a little low resolution, the only particularly difficult thing to read is the bottom right one which says "VR Grom", the Yugoslav name for the Kh-23M. Recon pod options are the Vinten 880 which I can't find much about but think is a LOROP system or the ILS 401 Infra-red Line Scanner. Some sources also claim they could take the pods from the MiG-21R but I'm less sure about that.

#2335 and #1652 J-22 Orao II - Missing the #1562 BL.775 cluster bomb, the #1032 Durandal and the FAB-275 M91, all of which would be carried one on each outboard and two on the inboards for a total of six. Dates should be 1985-1991 for the Yugoslav one, although an out of service date with Yugoslavia is a tough thing to define given that Yugoslavia went out of service rather than the aircraft.
Around 14 Orao IIs were upgraded to carry other weapons, such as the AGM-65B Maverick. These should probably be a different database entry so that you can have Maverick Oraos and non-Maverick Oraos at the same base. Mavericks on the inner hardpoints caused compressor stalls so they're limited to two per aircraft, with the inner hardpoints carrying either nothing, two four shot NRZ-128 pods or two sixteen shot S-5 pods.

Some (unknown number) had VRTIO jammer/ELINT pods for electronic recon and six Italian built Elettronica ELT-459 podded noise jammers were available.

Unfortunately all internet data on the ELT-459s seems to have gone down the memory hole.
A useful hypothetical aircraft might be the INJ-22M Orao, which Gunner98 has expressed interest in for one of his scenarios. It's a two seat reconnaissance Orao with an Ericsson built SLAR fixed underneath the fuselage for naval recon. One built for tests, more intended pre-breakup. Not armed, unfortunately, it seems I got some wires crossed about acquisition of RBS-15 missiles. The use of jammers and countermeasures packs is very likely in service.

As for the #398 Vultur, it's much less complicated. I've attached another loadout diagram showing what it should look like, the most notable addition being 500kg bombs in two, three or five options and PRIND-122 122mm rockets which are visible in the attached photo. Some information also suggests that SEBAV-1 submunition dispensers were in service but I haven’t got much on them.

I have had a friend help me in looking for sources for this proposal and he'd also like to make a few points about Yugoslavia/Serbia.
Yugoslavia and Serbia should have access to the MiG-21R (local designation L-14i, L-14 being the MiG-21PFM) with its "D" and "R" Pods, D being an optical pod with AFA-39 100mm and ASHFAFA-5M 200mm cameras and R being an ELINT pod, both fitted with the ASO-21 chaff/flare system. The MiG-21MFs had a KA-112A LORAP pod for long range visual recon. Serbian MiG-21Rs were fitted with S-5 or NRZ-128 rockets as a field expedient for armed recon.

https://tangosix.rs/2015/02/11/istorija ... ca-mig-21/ - "Pilots performed high-risk flights and were often sent on tasks that were highly irrational. After valuable experience, planes often armed themselves with non-guided rocket beads so that when targets were discovered, they could take combat action."
Yugoslav MiG-21s should have the BL.775 instead of the RBK series of cluster bombs.
https://www.mycity-military.com/imgs2/7 ... 017104.jpg
Yugoslavia apparently never received RBK series bombs so they should be removed from the MiG-29. I'd like to include a link but you can't prove a negative.
Yugoslavia maintained a small number of Ka-25BSh (1975) and Ka-28 (1987) ASW helicopters which were passed on to Serbia. They also had multiple variants of the SA.341 Gazelle, a full accounting being available from the link but honestly adding a Forward Observer loadout to the current #1484 and #2340 Gazelles to represent the HERAs and putting in an armed copy called HN-42 GaMa (Gazelle Malyutka) or similar would probably be fine. If you want to go all out then make a pair of SA.341Ls that have the same loadouts but the later Astazou XIV engine, designated HO-45 and HN-45 GaMa respectively and available from 1986. The fates of the aircraft are noted and most seem to have passed to Serbia with a couple suitable for addition to Bosnia and Montenegro too.

The GaMa is equipped rather oddly with four #796 9M14P Malyutka missiles and two #635 Strela-2M missiles (technically slightly domestically improved Strela-2M/A variants), along with the same APX-334 Athos sights as French Gazelles use.

Finally, he's sent me a big article on strap-on countermeasure dispensers that I can't read because it's in Serbian and can’t find the button to attach but his summary is as follows:
Most Yugoslav aircraft were fitted for countermeasures dispensers that did not interfere with weapons carriage but not enough were available to go around, so the best thing to do is to mark them as Optional weapons and then use limited munitions to withhold them rather than doubling the number of loadouts for every Yugoslav aircraft just to have versions with and without countermeasures.
IJ-22 Orao gets two PIO-65-13 pods with 65 flares and 13 chaff bundles each when in reconnaissance config. Enough were available for all aircraft.
MiG-21s gets two PO-MIG pods with 20 flares and 80 chaff bundles each, fitted to the RATO hardpoints on the fuselage.
J-22 Orao II gets two POJR-L containers with 20 flares and 8 chaff bundles on the RATO hardpoints and a POJR-S container under the fuselage with another 40 flares.
J-21 Jastreb uses two POJR-L.
G-4 Super Galeb gets two POJ-264 with 40 flares and 8 chaff bundles.
An-26 gets two PIO-096 pods with 80 flares and 16 chaff bundles.
