Tu-22M3 Backfire Q.

The Tu-22M3 Backfire has an internal bay, yet the most common configuration we see for this aircraft is 2 x Kh-22 monster truck missiles carried externally.

In such configurations, is additional fuel carried in the internal bay (and if not, why not?) and what effect does/would this have on the aircraft’s range?
