Yes, because it's completely impossible that there would be a ready use ammo storage in a hot padarea that wasn't completely dependent on ammo bunker storage. After all, it's important to stack all your BBs in the same bunker so as not to make the enemy attacker's run more difficult
During a hotpad, the aircraft are ready to be rearmed. Now it's been almost 30 years, but I distinctly remember the engines running during the refuel. I can't remember if they shutdownto reload the nosegun, but I imagine they could at least shut down number 1 <left engine> sothe weapons crew didn't need to be concerned about it though. Oh yeah, we also didn't wait for ord to be shipped from the "ammo bunkers" to be loaded on.Now this is in the early 1980s, and it wasn't like we were the first ones to try it. Also it is primarily meant as a wartime tactic for boosting sortie rates, and we were at peace.
