On a somewhat related note, does anyone know which aircraft carries more fuel on a full tanker loadout:

Guessing here on the drop-tanks, but I think it would be...

Super Hornet with 5 drop-tanks or the Viking with 2.

I'd be assuming they're both carrying a full internal fuel loadout (and external with the drop-tanks), a single buddy refueling drop-tank, and no weapons on an air-to-air refueling mission.

Thanks, Boomer
