 | Multi-purpose Pylon 
  
 
 The multi-purpose pylon can carry a range of four different pylons that can be 
attached to it to carry different weapons and pods. The oblique construction of the multi-purpose 
pylon is due to the position of the main gear and the wing pivot center.
 Additionally to the pylons that are shown below, the LANTIRN pod 
adapter or the LAU-138 missile rail & chaff dispenser 
can be attached to the multipurpose pylon.
