We need pics from a F-15C cockpit. In particular, the JTIDS/FDL panel and its location. Help!!!

Isn't JTIDS still covered as a classified component?

the actual workings thereof, yes, but pics of the panel itself should be fine. It's even in the manual BUT... it's one of those replacement ones so not placed in the panel schematic...

We have way more info than that on how it works....The challenge we are facing now is purely cockpit visuals, not function.

Took that from the USAF Avionics Maintainers Study Guide (U) so you have that panel layout and function, what else to you need photos?

Yep, photos. The panel diagrams we have but they are unclear on exactly where the JTIDS FDL panel is located on the left console, and what, if any, panels it replaces.

How about this left console view, shows what and where the panel(s) go...

We have that diagram and nope it is not quite clear on where it goes. It leaves a bit of uncertainty as to whether it replaces the HF radio or the EMERG A/R guarded switch to the side. Also, that panel is actually for a D as the C doesn't have the ICS panel just below the AAI panel.
