Backy 51 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 The USMC KC-130J Harvest Hawk would be ideal as it could serve not only as a tanker but also as a gunship ... I don't need no stinkin' GPS! (except for PGMs :D) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cichlidfan Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 It's V/STOL. You fly into town and land it at the gas station. :P Of course, you might need to add a little octane booster to the tank. :lol: 1 ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Hero, i7-6700K, Noctua NH-D14 Cooler, Crucial 32GB DDR4 2133, Samsung 950 Pro NVMe 256GB, Samsung EVO 250GB & 500GB SSD, 2TB Caviar Black, Zotac GTX 1080 AMP!

whaaw Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I don't want to jump to conclusions, but perhaps Razbam posted this video for a reason: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=167068 -Nick Wasnt this video just a demo from one of the DEV dudes in the RAZBAM Thread?

Automan Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Well, quite sure it will be a KC-130 ;) Air refueling is available in DCS. The problem is a lack of air tankers. So far the only available ones are the IL-76 and the S-3 with buddy stores. We are looking to incorporate a KC-130 with the AV-8B NA but we need to discuss this with ED.

That would make my day if I could just pull up, real casual and top up my fuel tank, mind you they're improving the Caucuses map so this can be my own personal dream - pretty please ED? In all seriousness though I think something like a KC-130 would be perfect, but mind you, practically any western probe and drogue tanker would do...

flyingscotsman Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 So the stations take USMC PAYPAL CARDS? Visa....RAF aircraft, cash only! Remember each country bills for it's fuel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilducky Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Or Razbam can bump up their A6 production and we can configure it for a tanker role :) Actually... that would be a horrible idea cause I couldn't do 2 aircraft that close together. Never mind Razbam! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AG-51_Razor Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I would have to vote for the KC-130, just in case someone comes along with a CH-53E that happens to have a refueling probe on it. :music_whistling: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
