@cvvhrn Um, is that front landing gear supposed to look like that?
edit: Hmm, I guess it is. I assume the rod that's not connected at the other end is for towing?
@mattblaze And NO its not the gear. remember its a VX-31 bird
@mattblaze @pauliehedron is correct. It is the launch bar they hook into the shuttle of the catapult
Catapult hookup perhaps? It's a Marine plane.
