Tamiya 32579 - 1/48 US Airfield Fuel Truck for scale modellers

This compact Tamiya kit offers modellers a faithful 1/48 representation of the U.S. airfield fuel truck used in WWII. It is well suited to small-scale dioramas and period ground work.

Accuracy on the workbench and display

The model reproduces key features like the hard-top cab and the hose assembly, and the supplied figures help convey the daily tasks of a refuelling crew. It makes a convincing element in any historical layout.

Build tips and contents

As a glue-assembly kit, it focuses on plastic detail rather than aftermarket metal parts. Decals are supplied for authentic markings, and the rubber fuel hose improves the finished kit without extra parts to source.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Material: PS Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Glue Required
  • Decals: Included
  • Figures: Includes 1 driver and 2 crew members
The kit is detailed for its scale and includes decals and rubber tubing. Modellers wanting extra finesse can add aftermarket photo-etch or resin accessories, but they are not required.
Build time varies, but an experienced modeller can assemble and paint the main vehicle over a few evenings. Allow extra time for weathering and decal application.
Yes, the supplied rubber tubing is flexible and trims easily to shape. It helps create a convincing hose without advanced modelling skills.
