The pod in the picture comes with the Special Hobby Mirage F-1 , but is not shown on the instructions. I assume it goes on the centreline, but I am struggling to I.D. it, as Google isn't very forthcoming. On the angled front end there are what appear to be engravings for either windows or sensor panels. I am wanting to put it on my current mirage 5/50 build.
Cheers, Chris.

Looks like the ASTAC Elint Pod

That's the one!!
Many thanks for that Dave, found out what it does too, which is interesting. I don't have enough electronic warfare aircraft within my Honduras air force builds, so these pods will come in useful  :thumbsup:
