LCA can't carry 3.6 tons of fuel externally. The drop tanks aren't rated at 1200 Kg either, it is 1200 liters. Take 80% of that capacity as weight of the fuel if you want a figure for weight of fuel carried. Center line is 725 liters.
That's 960*2 + 580*1 = 2500Kg of fuel in drop tanks. I'm not sure if there is enough space to carry a 1200 liter tank on the center line. The Mk2 can be fixed to do that though. With 3 1200 Lt tanks, it would be 2880 Kg.
That's ~5 tons of fuel when carried both internally and externally.
