The Kerbodyne S3-3600 Tank is a extra large (3.75m) liquid fuel tank. It contains 18 t of liquid fuel/oxidizer mixture, which is 12.5% more compared to the Rockomax X200-32 Fuel Tank (which contains 16 t).
It is the smallest tank in the 3.75m Kerbodyne S3 series, holding half the fuel of the Kerbodyne S3-7200 Tank. However, it holds slightly more fuel than the Kerbodyne ADTP-2-3, which is also size 3.75m.

Usage
The S3-3600 acts as an intermediate sized liquid fuel tank, for fine tuning propellant amounts while staying with the size 3 parts. It can also be used with a 2.5m engine (such as the RE-I5 "Skipper" Liquid Fuel Engine) to provide moderate amounts of fuel for little part count.
When full, one tank can power a Kerbodyne KR-2L+ "Rhino" Liquid Fuel Engine for 30.0 seconds, or a S3 KS-25x4 "Mammoth" Liquid Fuel Engine for 13.9 seconds, while at full thrust.
The S3-3600, S3-7200, and S3-14400 all have the same radius, mass ratio, and cost ratio. This means that stacked S3-3600 tanks are interchangeable with either other tank. Contrary to what is stated in the part description, the S3-3600 is exactly half the cost of the S3-7200.
Trivia
- The product description describes the Kerbodyne S3-7200 Tank as Kerbodyne's signature fuel tank. Prior to version 1.0, the Kerbodyne S3-14400 Tank was described as Kerbodyne's "signature" tank, and this description was used instead:
“ | A quarter capacity version of Kerbodyne's iconic fuel tank. — Kerbodyne |
” |
Changes
- New Orange variant added
- Mass reduced from 2.5 to 2.25, cost reduced from 7200 to 3250, description changed.
- Initial release
