Lockheed Martin have released press in details of its new Legion Pod.Built as a flexible bolt up passive Radar for aircraft with selectable upgradeable components and sensors.It can also pass along targets to other airframes.With the newer Gen 5 and Gen 6 airframes pushing the envelope with electronic warfare I can see this as a good way to envelope older airframes and also NATO platforms possibly.

The Legion pod is an IRST pod (I don't think it has a radar on board however) designed for the legacy fleets to give them detection and tracking of airborne targets similar to but not as advanced as what the F-35 has built-in already with its AN/AAQ-37.
They recently just test flew it on an F-16 on June 30th and plan on testing it on F-15's as well by the end of the year.
