Helmsman Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Don't know for sure but looks like ECM pods to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Berkut Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 The ECM pods are on the wingtips... I believe the things on the underside of the intakes are training equipment to simulate electro-optical TV-guided bombs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
foxmulder_ms Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 Apparently it can be attached to other pylons and, if the load is symmetric, it can be carrying 4 of them: Dont think is is ECM pods. Can it be laser/tv guidance related? Very interesting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Helmsman Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Sure thing, I misread intakes for wingtips. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In light of that it seems odd they would carry more than one for training EO targeting/delivery. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
