A pod positioned under the fuselage of a B-1B Lancer was the part of the focus of a test conducted Nov. 15, 2011, by members of the 419th Flight Test Squadron and Global Power Bomber Combined Test Force and the 337th Test and Evaluation Squadron at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas. The test completed the Laptop Controlled Targeting Pod Phase II upgrade to the B-1. The upgrade gives the aircraft new capabilities including a reduced timeline to find and strike moving targets in close air support of ground troops. (U.S Air Force photo/Kate Blais)
