Add capacity to refuel other planes. A buddy store is an external fuel tank with a built-in hose reel and drogue that allows smaller planes to refuel each other.

Here's a picture of an F/A-18 with buddy store refueling an A-6:

Thanks for that. It says in the DB entry for the a/c in question with this loadout that it has a wing drogue (EKA-3B Skywarrior) under properties so not sure why it needs this.
