A sensor-carrying pod which has middle and readily detachable end sections. The end sections are chosen from a suite of different end sections, depending upon the sensors used in a mission. The sections may include panels, or windows specifically transmissive to predetermined wavelengths, such as vi

A sensor-carrying pod which has middle and readily detachable end sections. The end sections are chosen from a suite of different end sections, depending upon the sensors used in a mission. The sections may include panels, or windows specifically transmissive to predetermined wavelengths, such as visible and IR. A deployment arrangement allows the pod to move horizontally and vertically, from an aircraft, into the airstream, and back again after a mission. The door of the aircraft is sealed around a component of the deployment arrangement to allow for pressurization of the aircraft for high altitude reconnaissance missions.
