Yeah, but those colours are all wrong & that demarkation line should be 2¹/₄" lower!

That's quite a close-up! What's the pod on the centerline pylon?

AN/ASQ-236 "Dragon's Eye", I think. It's an AESA radar surveillance pod. The WarZone has a write-up on it: LINK! Quite a nifty bit of kit, it seems.

Fantastic photo.

Just how much junk do they think they hang underneath an airplane and have it fly?

With enough thrust?

............... Lots!

Ans Boeing couldn't have just adapted this system for the KC-46? Smells like NIH in full bloom.
