A fuel tank for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The fuel tank includes a bladder 603 configured to be housed inside the fuselage of the unmanned aerial vehicle, e.g. connected at coupling points 650. The bladder includes a series of baffles 605 for reducing slosh of fuel in the bladder when the unmanned aerial vehicle changes direction, and may be configured to expand or contract based on the volume of fuel. The baffles may be concentric (figure 7) or located parallel to a longitudinal axis of the fuel tank, and may include apertures to control the degree of fluid flow. Also claimed is a fuel tank suction pipe including a submersible fuel hose coupled to a weighted nozzle 375 configured to settle at the bottom of the tank.
