I have long wondered about the thing that looks like an antenna above

I was going to say what type of antenna structure it might be, but I
know that I don't have a clue.

Anyone here know that is allowed to talk about it?

I found an example. This is not a picture of the real plane, but is a
drawing of an F35 JSF canopy.
