Albion 3-point fueller (AIRFIX), 1/48 - Hauler HLX48364

Hauler HLX48364 is a photo-etched detailing set at 1/48 designed for the Albion 3-Point Fueller tanker truck by Airfix. This accessory enhances the reproduction of the British air support vehicle, and is aimed at modelers who want to add even more finesse to their build.

The real Albion AM463 3-Point Fueller vehicle was used by the RAF during the Second World War for supplying aircraft. Its three refuelling points made ground operations faster—an especially interesting subject for creating a 1/48 scale aviation diorama scene.

The photo-etched parts provide the fine detail suited to metal elements with small thickness. Assembly requires careful cutting, precise bending when needed, and appropriate gluing to metal parts. Careful preparation, followed by priming, then makes painting and integrating the assembly into the Airfix vehicle easier.
