I have a part off an aircraft (nobody seems to know what part or what aircraft). I imagine it's partially tungsten since it's not much bigger than a 4x4 cube and has to weigh close to 50lbs.


Err, that could be depleted uranium.

It's not shaped like a prism. It has some functionality to it (there are mounting points and a pivot of some sort). Also, I think it came from a military aircraft, so not a 747.


I’d love to see some pictures of you have them handy.

Tracking down obscure stuff like this is soothing :)


I'll have to get some pictures next time I'm at my parents'.
