The Rockomax X200-16 Fuel Tank formerly known as FL-T16 Fuel Tank provides fuel to liquid fuel engines, like the Rockomax "Poodle" Liquid Engine, attached beneath it.

The FL-T16 Fuel Tank is a liquid fuel tank available only in the paid version. With a propellant reserve of 1600 liters, one tank can power a single LV-909 Liquid Fuel Engine for 470-612 seconds on full thrust.

Description

After many, many studies, Rockomax engineers found that the space program does indeed have a use for a tank half the size of the X200-32. No refunds.

Rockomax Conglomerate.

The standard tank of the X200 series, the -16 tank is a compact solution for all your fueling needs.

Rockomax Conglomerate.

The T16 tank had some difficulty being accepted in the spacecraft engineering world, because most rocket builders had trouble overcoming their urges to squee at the "cute little fuel tank". This initial reaction was only put aside when the amount of fiery explosions in assembly areas became so high, strict guidelines were put in place to prohibit "teasing the fuel containers". The T16 Tank now is widely used in several space programs, especially in conjunction with the LV-909 engine.
