| Feature | Description | 
|---|---|
| Fuel Type | Jet A-1 (Aviation Kerosene). These trucks are designed to handle this specific, highly refined fuel. | 
| Tank Capacity | Varies widely, common models are around 5,000 Liters (approx. 1,320 US Gallons) up to 25,000 Liters (approx. 6,600 US Gallons). | 
| Chassis | Typically a Dongfeng commercial chassis (e.g., DFH1260D, Tianjin, or similar heavy-duty models). | 
| Tank Material | Often constructed from aluminum alloy for lighter weight and corrosion resistance, or occasionally carbon steel with special internal coatings. | 
| Refueling Systems | Equipped with highly specialized systems for aviation fuel: | 
| * High-Accuracy Flowmeter: Essential for precise fuel delivery, typically with 0.2% | |
| * Filter Separator: Meets strict aviation standards (like EI 1581) to ensure the fuel is clean and free of water. | |
| * Hose Reels: Includes special aviation-grade hoses and nozzles for both underwing (pressure) and overwing (gravity) refueling, often with high flow rates. | |
| * Safety Systems: Critical features like bottom emergency cut-off valves, anti-overflow probes, grounding/bonding cables (static reel), and explosion-proof components. | |
| Refueling Flow Rate | Varies by model, but a typical reel can deliver up to 1,000 Liters/minute. |
