Hi all,

Many sources pertaining to the F4U series point out that when they built the F4U-1C/-1D and subsequent variants, they deleted the 62 gal. wing fuel tanks used on the F4U-1/-1A.

I have one question about this: did the F4U-1D and later variants retain provisions for the wing tanks?

Tanks...I mean, thanks!:lol:
 
From what I've read, there was no provision for internal wing tanks after the deletion happened. However, the wing tanks were installed on the Super Corsair, this time in self-sealing form, capacity 32.5 gals each.
