HISTORY ASPECTS -
The Albion 3-Point Fueller was a specialized airfield support vehicle developed by the British manufacturer Albion Motors during World II. Designed for rapid and efficient refueling of Royal Air Force (RAF) aircraft, it featured a distinctive three-hose system that allowed multiple aircraft to be serviced simultaneously. Its rugged construction and reliable engine made it suitable for use on rough and often muddy ford airfields, where logistical efficiency was vital to maintaining air superiority.
This vehicle saw extensive use in various theaters of the Second World , including the European and North African campaigns. It played a critical support role during major operations such as the Battle of Britain, D-Day, and the push across Western Europe. On the ground, the Albion 3-Point Fueller contributed directly to the high operational tempo of RAF squadrons, ensuring that Spitfires, Hurricanes, and later Typhoons and Tempests were always ready for combat missions.
After the , many Albion fuellers remained in RAF service into the early post years, with some being adapted for civil aviation use. Though eventually replaced by more modern equipment, the Albion 3-Point Fueller remains a celebrated example of time ingenuity and logistics. Its service ensured that front-line s stayed airborne during some of the most critical moments of the conflict.
This 1 - 48 scale model is a must-have for enthusiasts of WWII aviation dioramas and British military history. Featuring intricate detail and authentic time markings, it perfectly complements 1 - 48 scale aircraft kits, bringing the unsung heroes of the air —the ground crews—into the spotlight.
