U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Kevin Estrada, 378th Expeditionary Maintenance Squadron armament maintenance member, secures a safety wire to a cylinder block bolt for a MAU-12 ejector rack within the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility, Aug. 4, 2025. A centerline fuel tank can be mounted to the MAU-12, with the cylinder block functioning as an ejection mechanism, should a pilot need to quickly eject the tank to enhance maneuverability and remain agile and lethal in the dynamic threat environment.
