I don't believe the Mohawk carried any armament.

The Army wanted a CAS capable plane. They knew the AF would not let them buy one. So they pulled an end run. They had the Marines buy it. They could have "hard points" on wings that would take bombs and that was the way it was manufactured. When It went out of service, the Army had given up and become Chopper fanatics. The problem, of course, is that a chopper won't take the damage that something like the A-10 will.
