Euro copter 130 F-WGYP Model was remodeled by John McClane to be weaponized. He plans to integrate a Machine Gun and a rocket launcher to the helicopter by using a truss system. The designed truss is presented Figure FE-001. If the machine gun weighs 181.382kgs and the rocket launcher weighs 181.382kgs and were attached to points B and A respectively, Determine the internal forces on the members and all the reactions of the supports.
