I present to you a model tanker, collected for my father, as he flew on these planes, so the modification and board number are taken not in vain.
 The model is going not bad, but many abuse it, I personally have limited alteration of the nose landing gear, replaced all the barrels of guns, needles from syringes, changed the wingtips under the refueling site and replaced the input and output nozzle from the "NEOMEGI"
