Richard E Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Does the Sniper pod replace the targeting pod of the LANTIRN system on an F-15E? I think there where some pictures in a recent Lakenheath post that showed on of the F15E squadrons flying with a Sniper Pod. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ElectroSoldier Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Ok Ill clarify my post I know Lakenheath uses the Sniper pod Does the sniper pod use the same pylon as the targeting pod of the LANTIRN system? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If I'm not mistaken, Yes.... However, you need additional adapter to house the XR. HTH Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewS Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Hi Daryl, Sorry if this seems to be rushing you, just curious actually. How are the Sniper (Pantera) pods going, and how about the F-16 spines? I'm still very much interested! Thanks for any update you might have. Cheers, Andrew. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
My AirFix Posted September 14, 2006 Author Share Posted September 14, 2006 Hi Folks, My sincere apology for the bad follow up & lack of comms… Just wanted to materialize the product prior going public as I do not wish to disappoint you folks further. Please view attached pics for the latest development…. I’ve cleaned up & assembled the Pod for a sling shot. Corrected Pylon (HSG Kit) Sling Shot (RoG Intake) Just for illustration, I managed to sling onto a Viper jet which was built many years back…. Both the XR Pod & Pylon is stocked for delivery… I only have 50pcs for delivery as of current because the mold has given way… So it might take a while more to resume production for the XR. Those had previously placed an order from me, the pods are set aside for you already. Please feel free to write me if you’ve any questions & I’ll try to get back to you within a day or two…. Thanks for your patience & kind support Best Regards, Daryl Quote Link to post Share on other sites
