Description
The Boeing KC-135 Stratotanker is an American military aerial refueling aircraft that was developed from the Boeing 367-80 prototype, alongside the Boeing 707 airliner. It is the predominant variant of the C-135 Stratolifter family of transport aircraft.
Fun Fact:
-the KC-135 made of more than 50% aluminum by weight, and 10% steel and stainless steel. Other metals include magnesium and titanium.
-transfers enough fuel through the refueling boom in one minute to operate the average family car for more than one year.
-transfer more fuel in 8 minutes than a gas station could pump in 24 hours.
-can actually tow a fighter along while hooked up for a refueling, at 500 MPH.
-carries the refueling boom operator in a position only about 20 feet from the cockpit of the aircraft being fueled.
Note!!!
-This is designed for AI and its impossible to perform aerial refueling in this plane.
-The refuel boom automatically lowers when reaching a certain speed.

@BARREND I am on mobile, but for me, I Go into the game’s XML files and find the ai tanker code, and then replace it with this one’s. Works fine for me.
@Ooflauncher1 how can you change the ai tanker?
Isn't this the type of plane that made the wiener for its flight path?
@Red920 if you replace it with the normal tanker in the game’s code, it should hypothetically work. Butttttt I dont wanna break the game, so I’ll leave that to you.
Great 10/10
Forgot the 2nd bar that comes down (where the drouge add-on stores its hose)
@RYAviation i think it wont spawn automatically as AI
@Red920 what if you remove the control surfaces and use a strong gyro to keep level
@RYAviation lol its impossible to refuel on this plane because it keeps doing aggressive manuevers like fighter jets.
What’s the refuel speed exactly?
Ok
@jakes54panhead you can change the input on the rotator to
Activate1if you want to activate it using AG1 orActivate2if AG2 and so on.@MAPA Thank you. Can't build this without your tutorial.
this is amazing!
@Aarav Thank you.
Very wise use of parts. Bravo!
@MAPA this is the KC-135 ive been talking about on your forum post and it spawns automatically even theres a winch attached. :D
