I've found a couple of those drop tanks out in the creeks when fishing.

yeah, look like drop tanks for a F15. OP, the tanks are seperate from each other.

A lot more fighter or attack jets than F-15s use drop tanks to carry extra fuel. Like pretty much all of them can.

Looks like an old Freightshaker classic with a Fontain drop deck.

Yup, that is definitely a truck hauling something.

That's a force multiplier

It's a rolling inhalation hazard.

I was going to say it's a nightmare chain and binder down job.

F15?

Its tough to tell from the angle of the pic, but the tanks look more like F-16 externals. It looks like the aft end of the tank is flat (not pointed) and you can see a small fin on the side. The 600 gallon tanks F-15s carry are pointed on both ends and do not have side fins on the aft end.

I have not idea what the inhalation hazard placards are all about.

Maybe some of that GSE is for purging or charging a hydrazine EAPU? But then I would expect to see a flammability tag as well.
