I'm not convinced that's a fuel tank next to the hangar. While there are certainly facilities out there with fuel tanks next to them, another common and visually similar occurrence is a standby water tank to support a fire suppression system in the hangar. If they had the money to put a new roof on it, they probably had the money to upgrade the fire system on the inside. The F-22 doesn't run on special fuel, and I don't think the flight envelope of the RQ180 is that much different that it would require a special fuel.
