That is frozen blue ice from the LAV.

 

[pkober]

It's the starter pull string.

 

[Beaver79]

Everyone is way off....it's the flux capacitor...1.21 gigawatts...

 

[Deuce130]

It's a camera...so "they" can spy on you. In all seriousness, I wouldn't count on too many Raptor guys chiming in. The community has had a few (one?) instance of someone (ahem, SQ/CC at Elmendorf) getting their peepee spanked hard for too much posting on an internet site. Nothing unclassified, but put two and two together....

 

[SpaceBall 1]

No....it's the cuisinart for ludicrous speed

 

[JungleJett]

I have no ideal what it is but it probably cost a 100 kajillion dollars....

...and then there is the cost to other programs.

[AirBadger]

Probably allows them to operate in the civilian ATC system.

 

[Metro752]

That's the armored ballsack.

Nope. Mr. Fusion is outside, flux capacitor is inside.

Plus, it's pretty obvious what it is anyway.http://www.truckaddons.com/Catalog/subpages/BullsBalls_truckballs.htm

 

[Benhuntn]

It is the tailhook for gear up landings.

 

[flatspin7]

Its a venturi... How else do they power the attitude indicator???

 

[jeroom]

Probably allows them to operate in the civilian ATC system.

Now is that lady a friend of yours???
I wouldn't mind knowing her a bit

 

[bagasticks]

it was used in a test to demonstrate the aircraft's air to ground payload capacity. . . .

That my friends is the GBU69 5 lb bunk buster (not to be confused with BUNKER buster as this surgically busts individual bunks within a bunker). .

 

[insomniac99]

truck nutz

 

[Oh-ryan]

It's where the pilot stores his purse, GARB, fanny pack and extra ascots for deployments.

 

[JungleJett]

I actually hear it is like one of the electric fences for dogs...it zaps you if you take the airplane anywhere near combat.

 

[LearLove]

OK I'll jump in:

1. device that tricks F22 into thinking it is always on east coast time so computers don't shut down

2. external pod to carry circular saw to cut out pilot when canopy malfunctions

 

[SIG600]

That was funny.

 

[NewmanF16]

That's where you put the stick in to wind it up.

 

[DaveGriffin]

Sensor w/sat modem that dials Gen. Corley's Blackberry to notify him if any F-22 gets below 35K ft.

 

[Dizel8]

Remote control receiver!

 

[JungleJett]

actually it is the middle finger to all the underfunded programs.

 

[hobbsmeter]

It's a chemtrail dispersal pod.

 

[CAP10B]

A change purse containing funding for the new tanker.

 

[lowtimedriver]

It is the 5 million dollar stall warning horn.

 

[DaveGriffin]

Little Debbie Snack Cake dispenser for P-3 inflight resupply.
