Description
Aftermarket resin and 3D printed accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits, representing the 330 gal FPU-8/A fuel tank used on the F/A-18 Hornet series (A, B, C, D, and Super Hornet) for extended range.
Highly detailed parts intended for accurate 1/72 scale aircraft models, reproducing the fuel tank design commonly seen on operational F/A-18 aircraft in both training and combat missions.
The FPU-8/A fuel tank is a key component of the Hornet’s air-to-air and air-to-ground missions, providing additional fuel storage for long-duration operations. This set enhances the realism of your F/A-18 model with accurate details and fits a wide variety of Hornet kits.
For modelers: Test-fit the fuel tank on the pylons before painting to ensure proper alignment. A metallic or weathered paint job can add more realism to the fuel tank for operational models.
