The Pods are operational now. They are similar to a target pod.

I'll have to do some checking because "operational" vs field testing may be what my mind may be twitching on.

I do know that a few months ago an RFI was released to help develop this pod and PGM capability of the A-10. This suggests the field testing of a solution, but not necessarily a full-blown operational deployment. (Though the RFI did say they needed to have something within months as opposed to the normal "years" to design, develop and improve.)

Thanks for the heads up.
