Refueling planes?

[FinaL]

Are there any refueling planes?

And i mean planes where you can actually refuel at.
Like a flying refueling-truck.

It would be absolutely totally awesome to hang under a plane gulping lots of fuel and then commence an attack.

I think that would be awesome but by the time a lane would have been refueled you would be 20 miles from the island you started over.

Hahaha...didnt know it was still possible to be still original in this modding world.

Something like this has no use in a game like OFP. It's been done in flight simulators. Trust me, by the time you are aligned correctly for the in-air-refuel, the OFP island won't show up on your radar anymore

Here's a pic of an SU-33 tanking in Flanker2.5

Well, the plane can fly in little circles of course.
Just give it some waypoints and cycle them.
No biggy there.

But like a lot of add-ons, it doesnt really have to be useful in OFP. It would just be really cool to have a working refueling plane in the game.
Besides, i dont care if the island disappeared from the radar. i just follow the plane.

something like an mc-130 would be ideal for refueling MH-60/47/53's

For OFP i think this is the most likely plane for refueling missions.
KC-130

Notice on the pictures that it also does refueling missions for choppers.

Other candidates are:
the KC-10

and the KC-135

you know it would be impossible to keep the same speed as the refueling jet in OFP. if you had a flightstick w/ the really fancy schmancy throttle control (like i do ) it would, it might, it wont... more likely
