Product Description

Jet fuels JP*5 and JP*8 are substances used as aircraft fuels
by the military. JP*5 and JP*8 is shorthand for jet propellants
5 and 8. JP*5 is the U.S. Navys primary jet fuel, and JP*8 is
one of the jet fuels used by the Air Force.

Both of the substances are composed of a large number of
chemicals, and both are colorless liquids that may change into
gas vapor. They smell like kerosene, since kerosene is the
primary component of both JP*5 and JP*8. They are made by
refining either crude petroleum oil deposits found underground or shale oil found in rock.
