First off these pics arent so great :( , the weather just wasnt being nice for the Sunliners visit yesterday. I want to ask ,can someone tell me what is on the wing in the final pic? Ive seen thousands of Hornets through here and have never seen that.......it was flat on the front and had a glass panel? (Im terrible on ordinance/pods etc)

SLAM-ER

It's a long-range air-launched cruise missile.

See I told you guys it's his camera.....its' done it so many times it just knows automatically when to open and close the shutter...he just aims and the machine does the rest... :whistle:

seriously Ken you take some of the best action shots to be seen anywhere..the Armed Services should pay you for your work and make them recruiting posters...they would really benefit from it, and it would be a very worthy investment ;) :foof:
