Presumably FTI is Flight Test Instrumentation, and ITSPL the Integrated Tip Stub Pylon Launcher - just to help anyone, like me, unfamilier with these add-ons!

[Tarnished1]

You are indeed correct. I assumed most people knew FTI acronym and I have explained the ITSPL acronym in a very recent post. Perhaps I should have just said outboard pylon. Cheers
