[Mini Motors]

Some other angles could help.

Transportation modules for spent plutonium fuel rods. :shrug:

 

[texasfabguy]

one with the round end off. and one shot down the cone end.

nothing in side but what you see.there is a small grommet on the side like for an electric wire or something.

Aviation Fuel pods ????????????

I have searched and searched the net but no luck,it's hard when you have no idea what you are looking for.:blink:

that's a possibility! I'll drive buy the donut shop and hold it out the window and see if those women get excited when they see it.

It's the infamous knutson valve. the muffler bearing gets welded to the end.

My guess is a piece of meteorology equipment lol

 

[texasfabguy]

Well it really does look like a bomb,every piece has a inspection stamp on it. There are no marks anywhere like it was installed or bolted to anything.

Maybe they were not completed yet,no fins on the tail of them??:shrug:


I'm stacking parts for a rat rod build so in the pile they go....

Hit the pointy end really hard with a big hammer - if we get your next post its not a bomb:laugh:

Aluminium is generaly used for aviation - it has flat rivits and is smooth for air flow.
I do not think it is for fuel as the ends would be sealed - possibly telemetry equipment.
Its really cool though:thumbsup: use it on a mini:hammer:

Well, it's pylon mounted. Airborne chaff dispenser tube maybe. Could be a Magnetic Anomaly Detector housing, though those I'm familiar with are integral to the airframe.

Three compartments make it an unlikely housing for a threat radar pod. Definitely not fuel, nor minutions or flares.

Part of a fire supression system for large military aircraft???
