Why orange suit
Extendable means you need a mechanism (hydraulics may be) there which means more strong wing, means more weight ... also, with tank closer to wing, will deprive that area of incoming wind, and thus it effectiveness.. so that portion will not contribute to lift. so lift supersedes dragwould it not make sense to come up with some kind of extendable pylon
that is very validMore along the lines of this danger
both Bernoulli and Momentum (plus some other phenomena) are responsible for lift..It's the vacuum created above the wings that hold the plane up not the air pushing up on the wings.
My question is to the professional real fighter pilots and aeronautical engineers.
Would it not reduce the drag if the pylon height was reduced to hang the stuff closer to the wing?
Is the pylon height kept so much to reduce the risk of the payload tipping up and hitting the plane when they are released?
If the above two points are correct, would it not make sense to come up with some kind of extendable pylon to keep stuff closer during regular flight and extend it when releasing the payload?

It takes less than an hour to change the engine. You can imagine the rest. 15 minutes for installation of IFR probe sounds right.I was just stating from memory of reading Pakdef and PDF from ages past. Either my memory is faulty or the time is faster since the prototype effort. (or both).
There would be stability issues, I don’t know how to explain it to you, Let’s say, You hold some weights on both hands, Stand normally, Weights facing the ground, hands straight down.My question is to the professional real fighter pilots and aeronautical engineers.

Go to post #10749How many thunders in PAF inventory has got this air to air refueling capability ?
As per the aselpod team I met in DIMDEX, current aselpod doesnot has Any Datalink i.e No Hardware whatsoever for Datalink so Link-17 wont work either . Even if they plan to add Data link in distant future, Current existing PODS that PAF purchased wont be capable to be upgraded. They will have to buy new Data Linked Pods.
