A top of the multi-mission munition adapter may have suspension lugs configured to attach to a hardpoint on an aircraft. Sides of the multi-mission munition adapter may have one or more launcher attachment fittings configured to attach missile launchers. A bottom of the multi-mission munition adapter may have one or more munitions ejector hangers configured to attach air-to-ground munitions ejectors. The adapter may comprise an electrical system that permits an aircraft to communicate with and/or power all functions of the bomb rack, missile launchers, and the weapons employed.
