Status: offline 		According to the unit description window, ultralight aircraft types have the following max allowances: "MG allowed, Cupola not allowed, Max Rocket Lvl 2, Max Missile Lvl 1, Max bombs 1.000kg." However, despite this, the model design tool will only allow the player to add MG and bombs to ultralight aircraft. Either the design type needs fixed so they can use launched ordinance, or the unit description screen needs changed to reflect the fact that they actually cannot use such weapons.

To further clarify the point that it's not a matter of the weight vs. wings, zgrssd, recall that Very Small Rockets have a Real Weight of 100, which definitely doesn't exceed the Very Small Wings limit of 400, and then look at a very-possible ultralight craft:
