RESKIT RSU72-0168 150 gallon fuel tank AERO 1C USN & USMC for A-4 "Skyhawk" (2 pcs) (3D Printed) 1/72 is a professional scale modeling accessory set at the highest level of technological advancement. This product is dedicated to the A-4 "Skyhawk" aircraft in 1/72 scale and includes two highly detailed AERO 1C 150-gallon fuel tanks, historically used by the United States Air Force—specifically the US Navy and US Marine Corps.

The original AERO 1C tanks were an integral part of the A-4 Skyhawk during numerous combat and training operations, especially throughout the Vietnam conflict (1965–1975) and the later Cold War period. They allowed the flexible extension of the aircraft’s range without significant loss of performance or agility for this attack fighter. Such tanks were commonly seen mounted on Skyhawks during both combat missions in Southeast Asia and training flights over the Pacific in the 1960s–1980s. They saw wide use with US Navy and USMC units and often appeared at air shows and on dioramas recreating the Cold War era.
