&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;== Description ==&lt;br /&gt;
An &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;external stores hardpoint&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is a common feature on military aircraft, including [[aerospace fighter]]s, and allow craft to carry additional equipment including fuel tanks, sensor pods and [[:Category:Bomb Munitions|ordnance]].  They are less commonly found on civilian craft but, while normally used for nonmilitary purposes, can be easily converted to carry deadly munitions.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;TMp216-17&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;TechManual&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, pp. 216–217: &amp;quot;External Stores Hardpoint&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== Game Rules ===&lt;br /&gt;
Aerospace fighters and conventional fighters receive external stores hardpoints, which may be used to carry bombs, additional fuel tanks, or even special sensors (such as TAG). The number of hardpoints a fighter received is equal to its tonnage divided by 5 (rounded down).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;TWp196&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Total Warfare&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, p. 196: &amp;quot;External Stores (fighters only)&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike aerospace fighters and conventional fighters, which are designed for combat, fixed-wing support vehicles must install External Stores Hardpoints as part of their equipment, with each one taking up 0.2 tons of weight, and requiring 0 critical slots to install. Each hardpoint has the same capabilities as its combat fighter counterparts; however, a maximum of 1 hardpoint can be installed for every 10 tons that the unit weighs (rounded down).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;TMp216-17&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;TechManual&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, pp. 216–217: &amp;quot;External Stores Hardpoint&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
