LF 1/72 F-102 Original Weapons Bay Doors

The original doors had launch tubes for FFAR's, and, with the development of guided 2.75" rockets as anti-drone missiles, I've been thinking that similar doors on teh F-22's weapons bay could make for an interesting means of intercepting drones, cruise missles, at al.,

I figured that might be the case. Doing it right would take some investing in specidic tools, but it's worth doing right.
