The towable tank is mainly designed to refuel forward units.
Thanks to this innovative solution, refueling can be done on board of aircrafts, helicopters and vehicles (see an example: FARP, forward advance refueling point). Indeed, depending on its storage capacity, this tank can be transported, slung or even rolled. This drop tank can be attached to a truck, a plane or a helicopter.
Made of highly resistant PVC coated fabrics and assembled by vulcanization, this towable tank is very robust. Therefore, it can be dropped full, without risk of damage. Moreover, it is resistant to extreme weather conditions.
In addition, this drop height reaches:
20 meters for the 200 liters,
And 5 meters for the 1000 and 1900 liters.
Another advantage of this towable tank: the time saving. Indeed, thanks to its high mobility, it is easy to move according to the location of the vehicle to be refueled. In addition, this vacuum tank has a very small volume and does not take up much space.
It is a tailor-made product that is adaptable to the desired fuel storage capacity. In addition, in the range of heli-transportable tanks dedicated to refueling, we also find the Blivet Army Helitank.
