Rafale C issue with the MICA NG missile

Saw a new Rafale C entry was available in the DB (France Airforce 2024 F4-2, MICA NL) but when I stage them to an airbase and add the available weaponry, even after adding the MICA NG AA missiles, can't equip any of the aircraft because there are 2 lines on the profile for the MICA NG missile and only one of them recognizes the hardware in the ammo storage. See attached image.

Is this an error or by design (this aircraft is not available yet?).

Hey Alex,
there are two types of Mica NG, a radar guided and an IR guided. So you have to add them both to your magazine.

I do understand your confusion, though. I went ahead and suggested a modification to the DB.

That's interesting, because whether I use the "Show all weapons compatible with aircraft" or I filter on "MICA NG", I only see these options in the image:

So it looks like one of the MICA NG (2/2) options is the IR version you mention needs to be added but that seems to not at all be obvious from the options presented. Thanks for the clarification however!
