I've pushed my Cobras in/out of the garage and I can tell by the sloshing sound that there's no foam inside. Honestly, I can't tell what the tank is made of on the Shelby, it's coated in a black crinkle. Sounds like steel when I tap it.

My company makes fuel bladders for drones, including R&D'ing next generation Self Sealing bladders. The 50cal was easy. A 20mm and 23mm... tumbling... causes real havoc. The reticulated foam we use is the latest and greatest, but only tested on JP-5 and JP-8. If I was a little more daring...
