New Advanced Travel Pod Designed For the F-35A Delivered To Eielson AFB
The MXU-1072/A 5th generation travel pod is carried inside the F-35A Lightning II’s weapons bays.
A travel pod is usually an external fuel tank or canister, that has been adapted with an external door and internal shelves equipped with tie-downs, enabling the transportation of baggage. This setup is commonly used to carry various items during XC (Cross Country) missions or deployments, when aircrews need to accommodate a few small overnight bags as well as other stuff (like, for instance, squadron swag to be sold at airshows).

Problemi ne prestaju...metalni opiljci u gorivu,itd
Marine unit found metal shavings in F-35 fuel, plastic tool in wing
Citat:Metal shavings in contaminated fuel, incorrectly assembled parts, and a plastic scraper protruding from a wing fold were among the faults discovered in five new F-35C Joint Strike Fighters delivered to a U.S. Marine Corps fighter squadron in California in 2023, according to a memo obtained by Defense News.

Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 311, or VMFA-311, at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar in San Diego discovered an array of problems with its Lockheed Martin-made F-35s that ultimately required more than 700 hours of work to fix and wasted more than 169,000 pounds of fuel, the Jan. 7 memo said.

imaju sigurno i rusi, kinezi, turci korejci probleme sa novim avionima, samo se tamo mudro cuti, a ameri bas gledaju da trube na sva zvona sta god da se desi.

sto se aviona tice, i vesti oko njega, nema upgrade nema narudzbi, smanjuje se proizvodnja. pa nek se LM proserava i dalje.

Critical F-35 upgrade deferred, 2024 production slashed by 27-50%
As we gaze into the future of the F-35 fifth-generation fighter, we discover that the expected upgrade package, referred to as Technology Refresh 3 [TR-3], continues to undergo delays. What was initially planned for a 2023 release has already been delayed by a year. This slowdown in implementing innovations poses a significant obstacle to progress.
Interestingly enough, the Pentagon maintains a firm stance; they refuse to accept delivery of F-35s that lack these enhancements. Consequently, the service entry for this new generation of fighters has been significantly delayed. Factors contributing to these delays are diverse – they range from issues with software integration and significant hold-ups in avionic component production to broader software challenges.

Congressional frustration over these continual delays is no secret. This irritation was vividly illustrated when Representative Donald Norcross voiced his disenchantment during a recent House Armed Services subcommittee hearing. “Year after year, we meet in this very room, and each time, the issue remains unresolved. Anyone who looks at the situation can easily understand the source of our frustration,” he asserted.

Concerns over delays in upgrades have been increasingly expressed by various clients. Notable examples include the Belgian Air Force, which, back in August 2023, rejected received fighters due to outdated software, and the U.S. Marine Corps, which made their dissatisfaction quite loud and clear.

In a revelation that underscores the gravity of the problem, Lockheed Martin’s Chief Executive, Jim Taiclet, announced their anticipated delivery volumes for 2024 to hover between 75 and 110 F-35s. This figure only reflects 50%-73% of the approximately 150 aircraft that were initially expected. More worryingly, the production cuts in 2023, followed by this, could potentially make 2024 the year when the Chinese J-20 fifth-generation fighter surpasses the F-35 in terms of production numbers.

Citat:New Advanced Travel Pod for the F-35A delivered to Eielson Air Force Base:

The MXU-1072/A is a 5th generation travel pod designed to be carried internally in the F-35A's weapon bays, unlike external pods used on previous generation aircraft.
It is meant to replace legacy external travel pods and better suit the needs of the Air Force's Agile Combat Employment structure.
Manufactured by @KIHOMAC, it features several improvements over older pods like larger access doors, integrated tie-down system, lighter weight, increased storage capacity, NATO lug spacing for partner compatibility, removable end caps, stabilization feet, and quick release latches.
Key benefits include nearly 3 times more internal storage space at 12 cubic feet, around 40 lbs lighter weight than legacy pods, and enhanced accessibility and versatility for loading/unloading equipment.
At least one of these new Advanced Travel Pods has been delivered to the 356th Fighter Squadron at Eielson AFB in Alaska as of April 2024.
