The R-4 'Dumpling' External Tank is a radially attached liquid fuel tank containing liquid fuel and oxidizer.
It is currently the smallest liquid fuel tank in the game. It carries 55% of the capacity of the next largest fuel tank (the Oscar-B Fuel Tank), and 22% of the capacity of the 1.25m FL-T100 Fuel Tank.

Usage
The R-14 'Dumpling' External Tank is a liquid fuel tank containing LF/O mix. This allows it to power liquid fuel rocket engines, like the 48-7S "Spark" Liquid Fuel Engine. If there are multiple liquid fuel tanks connected to an engine, then they will all be drained equally to power it. [1] The Dumpling must be radially mounted.
When full, one tank can power a single LV-1 "Ant" Liquid Fuel Engine for up to 170.7 seconds at full thrust, or a single 48-7S "Spark" Liquid Fuel Engine for up to 17.2 seconds at full thrust.
Although it is radially mounted, the Dumpling appears 0.625m in diameter, equal to other tiny parts. By using the move tool in the editor, it is possible to move the tank so that it appears in-line with a tiny stack.
Variants
As of version 1.10 this fuel tank has two variants that can be switched in the editor.
Changes
- Added silver variant
- Lowered mass from 0.3375 to 0.01375
- Initial release
- ↑ This assumes that the flow priority setting has not been adjusted.
