Something a little different from my previous builds. I've been trying to differentiate each series of my guided bombs (Lawn Mower, UMOR-N, and Mike TV), and something reminded me of the existence of laser designator. Took me some experimentation to build a working pod, as I was unable to use camera for missile locking at first.(Turns out, camera 'part' itself has to rotate for locking; I didn't know about this, and I was trying to build a convoluted mechanism that rotates a cockpit part in sync with the camera on the pod... which did not work well, and messed up the chase cam.) As this was meant to be used on my 1960s-70s attack aircraft, I looked to Pave Knife targeting pod for inspiration. Curving of the fuselage is a result of that.At first, exterior looked more like the real thing, but something came over me and I decided to make it look the way it does now. Stupid klay people are the best.
Enjoy!
