Tamiya 32579 - 1/48 Scale US Airfield Fuel Truck for WWII diorama builders

This Tamiya fuel truck kit gives modelers a compact, accurate way to populate WWII airfield scenes. The 1/48 scale assembly captures the look of the U.S. support vehicle used to keep aircraft fueled and mission-ready.

Period detail and display use

The kit models a typical U.S. airfield fuel truck, complete with a hard-top cab and realistic rubber hose components. Included figures add life to a vignette, helping the truck sit naturally in a ground crew scene for museum-style or tabletop displays.

Assembly notes and builder experience

Sold as a glued assembly kit, the parts balance realistic detail with manageable construction. Photo-etched parts are not supplied, but decals and rubber tubing for the fuel hose are included to improve the finished look without forcing advanced aftermarket work.

No, this edition is a plastic kit without photo-etched metal parts. It does include decals and realistic rubber tubing for the fuel hose to add detail.
A modeller with basic glue and painting skills will enjoy this kit. The build is straightforward, but careful painting and decal work will greatly improve realism.
The figures come pre-sculpted for refuelling scenes. Modellers can trim or reposition limbs with caution to create alternate poses, but some hobby experience is recommended for conversions.
