Hello guys. I have this question for some time. All F-16s carry external tanks such as the 370 Gal. But I am not sure how that fuel goes to the aeroplane. In pictures of the F-16 I can't see any pipes connecting the external tanks with the internal, so how does the external tank fuel reach the aeroplane? Could someone help me here? I know some things about the F-16 but not everything!!!!!!!!!

Re: General F-16 question.
The fuel goes through plumbing inside the "fuel" pylon. Note that the "fuel" pylon is completely different than the standard weapons pylon.
