Raytheon's aircraft for flying around radar systems. I think that is for
Bombardier Sentinel that they're flogging to the RAF.

Sensor testbed aircraft of some sort would be my guess. The nose looks
modified for a tactical/fighter radar system.

And that underbelly pod looks like it may have some interesting goodies
inside.

Call sign "Voodoo 1" - She is registered to Raytheon - LA.

Not much more known.

Paint job looks a bit like the Janet flights.

Oy! A little Compound W should help the warts, and where else but LA

Now that is the third name I have seen on the nose. First was Amorous
Angie, then this Sweet Steve, & now Voodoo One. We used to have a DC-10
called Sweet Judy.
