Up to how many external fuel tanks can be attached to the aircraft?

Explanation:
External fuel tanks are limited by the aircraft’s available hardpoints. The Growler has a centerline station plus four underwing pylons (two on each wing: inner and outer). You can carry one tank on the centerline and one on each underwing pylon, for a total of five external tanks. In practice, you might load fewer depending on mission needs, but five is the maximum allowed configuration.
