AFRL research expected to lower aicraft fuel system repairs

Air Force Research Laboratory materials researchers are evaluating coatings to lower costly fuel tank repairs in military aircraft. Here a B-52 fuel strainer is pictured clogged with debris from the fuel tank coating. The strainer is part of the bomber's filter system that is affected by the cracking and peeling of the protective coating inside the fuel tank. (U.S. Air Force photo/Mike Spicer)
