Gripen External Fuel tanks

[nighthunter]

Hi, does anyone have an idea what the measurements of the Gripen's external fuel tanks are? I'm trying to draw some, and want it accurate, If someone has a scale model that can give me those scale to 1 measurements in meters, I'd appreciate it, thanks!

You mean the centerline tank? 61x10x7 mm on my 1/72 Revell Gripen. It has a more complex profile than the usual elongated teardrop though, with flat panels at the top and bottom.

Hobbes, could you please post profile pics of the tank, it'll help, as none exist that I can find, thanks!

Yes, I'll makes some pics this weekend.

I've put some photos on my Photobucket account.
