Psshhtt...it's you smart bastards who wind up failing the Aero exams. Absorb and regurgitate, man, and forget what you learned in your fancy school. :icon_tong
Sage advice.
Stud: "But wait, no! In grad school we learned that the lift equation was [fill in geekery here] so that's why I picked 'B' instead of 'C.'"
Instructor: "Great, Poindexter. Take another look at the answer key and see me after class." :icon_tong

MAD boom?
Is that the actual MAD boom for the P-8 or some type of mock one they put on at the factory?

Why does it have an N number and not a BuNo?
sweeeeet. paint em up in southwest livery and BAM...instant stealth.
on that note, are they gonna paint these things Blast reflective white like the TACAMOs or will they be haze grey like the Papa Trece?

Looks like a MAD boom, wonder where the DF is going for the EPs?
Pretty sure it is not going to have a mad boom. VP weenies care to confirm that?
They haven't picked the 737 for the EP replacement yet. I imagine it would have a leg up, but the competition for the replacement has has not been started yet.
As for antennas, they will just do they normally do, just add some funny looking bulges and random looking wires.

Pretty sure the primary KPP for EPX (EP-3 replacement) is to finally get the drag count to "E":icon_tong
Despite your attempt at demeaning my existence, I shall answer your question. For future reference, we prefer "wiener" to "weenie".
Last I heard was that they did take the MAD off to save weight. Not sure why this pig is weighing so much, but it is. That does indeed look like the mad boom, however I'm not certain if it is.
Trying to score a trip to the MMA guys when I'm in WA next month for a conference, will know more then...hopefully.

Which begs another question for the weiners: Are there more or less people planned for a P-8 squadron? I'd think less w/ the reduction of peeps in the cockpit and "automation." But I'm sure they can think of ways to add crew-creep.
