McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II early 600 Gallon Fuel Tanks (nestable) with Pylon (1 pcs) (3D Printed) Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0218 for Aircraft Model Kit

This aftermarket early 600 gallon external fuel tank represents the nestable centerline tank used on the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II. The set is designed as an accessory for aircraft scale model kits, improving the appearance of the external stores configuration.

Produced using high-resolution 3D printed resin, the tank features accurate proportions and surface structure typical of the early Phantom fuel tank design. The set also includes the mounting pylon, allowing installation on compatible 1/48 scale aircraft model builds.

The early 600 gallon nestable tank was commonly carried on the centerline station of the Phantom. Because of its size and location beneath the fuselage, this fuel tank becomes a prominent element of the aircraft’s external configuration.

For modelers: carefully remove printing supports and test-fit the pylon with the tank before painting. Checking alignment with the centerline mounting point helps ensure a clean installation under the fuselage.
