+# A bit of a hack, but fixes the common case where the Hornet cheek station is
+# empty because no TGP is available. For the Viper this will have no effect
+# because missiles can't be put on that station, but for the Viper an empty
+# pylon is the correct replacement for a TGP anyway (the jammer goes on the
+# other fuselage station, HTS isn't a good replacement, and we don't have
+# LANTIRN for the Viper).
+#
+# For the A-10 an empty pylon is also fine.
