Is it possible to give the napalm weapon from the Chinese Hellfire mig to another plane? I'm thinking of adding the F4 Phantom from the Cold War Crisis mod and having it drop the napalm canisters for my own personal mod. What steps would I have to do to give the weapon to the plane and would it involve W3D editing or could I just have it drop from the undersides? Any help would be appreciated! Thank you very much!

Not a mod specific answer but in order to create a plane that drops a bomb you should look into the aurora weapon and it's weaponobjects entry. Though to be honest the way bombs work with the aurora plane are kinda hacky as they have a locomotor from what I remember so they technically do not fall to the ground like you would expect it to do. In order to make it a bit more real just give your plane a weapon that spawns the bomb object via an OCL whenever the weapon is fired.
The napalm/fire part is just creating a fire field whenever the bomb dies (explodes) or attaching a new weapon to deal an initial fire damage upon explosion.
