Resin aftermarket accessory intended for aircraft scale model kits and miniature replicas.

Detailed parts for accurate 1/72 scale aircraft model builds, designed to replicate the 150-gallon fuel tank with realistic proportions, fine details, and surface texture (kit-dependent).

The OV-10 Bronco was used in various military operations, and the addition of this fuel tank enhances the aircraft’s range and ground attack capabilities. The tank also adds realism when displayed on your model, offering a true-to-life visual appearance for aircraft parked on the tarmac.

FAQ

Is this fuel tank compatible with other kits besides the OV-10?

Yes, the set is universal and can be used with compatible 1/72 OV-10 kits. Fit with other kits may vary and should be confirmed with a careful dry-fitting.

Should the fuel tank be installed before or after painting?

It's recommended to paint the fuel tank separately and then attach it to the pylons after finishing the surrounding model to avoid overspray and maintain clean lines.

What is the best way to handle the fuel tank during assembly?

Ensure that the attachment points are clean and test-fit the tank to the pylons before applying glue. Use a gentle amount of glue to avoid damage to the parts.
