Solo Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 ResKit has just released two versions of centerline fuel tanks. Anybody knows what are those versions for? Is it for certain timeframe or for production blocks of F-16? When or where should I use type 1 and 2? I see the external differences, but why those tanks are different at all? Anybody can explain?

BillS Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 One thing for certain; the pylon in the image is bassakward! I would imagine the type 2 was a later or reworked tank. I don’t have a clue when that type came on the scene though Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t have a clue when that type came on the scene though At least ResKit did their research. The pylon is in the correct orientation. Cheers, John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BillS Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 My bad! I stand corrected. I’m ashamed considering I was assigned to 4 F-16 organizations! As a side note, the adapter is mated to the aircraft for suspending the 300 tank but frequently ECM pods as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
