The Lockheed Martin AN/AAS-38 "Nite Hawk" is a FLIR & laser designation pod for use with laser-guided munitions.

It has been used with the F/A-18 Hornet, and has presumably been tested with the A-7E Corsair II.

AAS-38 pod comes in 3 varieties. AAS-38 (non LASER) AAS-38A (LTD/R) AAS-38B (LST) The AAS-38 is commonly referred to by the US Navy as TFLIR or Targeting FLIR. AAS-38 as of May 2008 is being phased out and replaced as new ASQ-228 ATFLR pods are built.
