Weird looking object -- was it ever a real aircraft? And, the front
part of the fuselage looks so oversized, like a Super Guppy -- or is it
maybe just a short stubby section chopped out of a much larger aircraft?

Thanks for info.

It is made of fairly thick steel. They use some kind of fuel to catch it
all on fire, depending what they want to practice, then spray out the fire,
and enter the fuselage, when desired.
