JCook Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Can we get the KC10 Tanker added. The KC10's Airborne TACAN can provide bearing and range information on the HSI. The KC135 Tanker only has range information available with their TACAN. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I'd like to see a KC-10, unfortunately DCS doesn't support multiple type refuelling at the moment (you can either have probe and drogue or flying boom, but not both) and I think it would be misguided to introduce one without its full capabilities.

It would still provide increased fuel capacity, which comes with some benefits. Increased loiter for long missions and less tankers needed for a given mission size for example. 1 Awaiting: DCS F-15C Win 10 i5-9600KF 4.6 GHz 64 GB RAM RTX2080Ti 11GB -- Win 7 64 i5-6600K 3.6 GHz 32 GB RAM GTX970 4GB -- A-10C, F-5E, Su-27, F-15C, F-14B, F-16C missions in User Files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Increased loiter for long missions and less tankers needed for a given mission size for example. True, but personally, it would be a pain to have to have 2 different KC-10s that are exact copies of each other, one for probe and drogue and one for flying boom. Don't get me wrong - I would love one, I just think it would be a better idea once this limitation was sorted out.
