600 Gallon Fuel Tanks with Pivot Pylons for FB-111 (2 pcs) (3D Printed) Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0438 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RSU48-0438 is an aftermarket accessory for aircraft scale model kits, providing 600 gallon external fuel tanks with pivot pylons for FB-111 related builds in 1/48 scale.

This 3D printed resin set includes two tanks and the characteristic pivot pylons used on swing-wing aircraft. The parts focus on clean tank contours and correctly aligned pylon geometry, helping the stores remain visually consistent with variable wing sweep configurations.

On aircraft such as the FB-111 and related F-111 variants, external fuel tanks were mounted on pivot pylons so that stores remain aligned when the wings move. Reproducing this feature adds structural realism to the underside of the model and improves the overall configuration of the aircraft.

For modelers: assemble and align the pivot pylons first, then test-fit them to the wing mounting points before attaching the tanks. Light sanding of the contact surfaces may improve alignment. Prime resin parts after cleaning to ensure consistent paint coverage on the tank surfaces.
