Interesting. I don't think these are standard Meteor drop tanks. Those
finlets and the slightly flattened shape look more like they belong on a
Sabre, but they came much later so not likely.

According to Bryan Philpott's 'Meteor', published by PSL, these are
indeed F-86 tanks. Despite being an earlier aircraft, some Meteors were
still in Argentine service in the 1970s.
