What is under his right wing?

[8081rt]

The first one has a bomb rack with a few BDU-33's on it. The second has a GBU-12. Plus the ACMI pods that Hyper399th was talking about.

Finally some Rhino love! I think you need to employ someone to start up a sub group called Oceana or Lemoore spotters! Great vid as always

[Hyper399th]

Almost right. There ACMI-pods ( Air Combat Maneauvering Instrumentaion ), They indeed track radarbeams and lockon signals indicating a simultated kill.

Landing gear... I think.

@22896pv i think its a sensor or laser somehting like that, all i know is its supposed to track fake missiles and the fake guns of the planes to see if they downed an enemy.......i think
