Some (but far from all!) loadouts in the platforms database will be 'quick turnaround' capable, typically simpler A/G loadouts on tactical jets. Bomber loadouts, cruise missile loadouts, etc will never be in this category.

Then, if the player decides to use 'quick turnaround', the plane can fly 4 sorties with 25 minute turnaround. But once the plane stands down it will be out of action for a prolonged period of time, probably 36-48 hours. The exact number of missions, the turnaround time and the penalties will be set for each loadout in the database. So no in-code 'one rule' implementation.

This should solve the problem I think?


Edit
I have for months been searching the Internet for the same information I have in my head regarding loadout time a.s.o for JAS 39 and it is a lot shorter than a F-18 etc (please see a qoute from a wiki page in one of my first post)
