I am a strike eagle maintainer, since I don't know much about stealth aircraft, where are the flares/chaff are stored on the aircraft? Couldn't find anything online.
Thanks.

Mud Eagle maintainer eh? :roll:

The article is crap but has a good picture depicting a variety of systems in the jet, including countermeasures
