  • Hey David!

    Any idea what that bulge behind F-15B cockpit would be? Haven’t seen that before.

    • Hi Sebastijan,
      there are many theories at the moment: someone says that it is a GPS antenna (but it is too large in my opinion for that purpose) while others say it is a SATCOM antenna that is part of a communication modification (and this is my pick).
      I hope that somebody is able to provide more details.
      Best Regards,
      David

  • yeah I agree, way too big for GPS antenna.

    certainly some interesting additions to their fleets, together with that F-16s
