Description:
The RP62 1,300-liter centreline tank is a French-origin external subsonic fuel drop tank used extensively on the Dassault Mirage III and Mirage 5 families, including service with the South African Air Force (SAAF) and many others
While well liked in the underwing position, the SAAF pilots did not like it mounted in the belly position as it tended to leak and induced a lot of “drag”, the SAAF preferred the Israeli built RP825 800 litre centreline supersonic tank
