Gary, I have been unable to find a lot of good pictures in the KC-135 Book of the EC-135H that shows the antenna differences from the standard KC-135Es, do you happen to have any such pictures? I'm wondering because I'm looking to add the EC-135H to the vUSAF stable and if the antennas don't stand out too much, I'll use the KC-135E and repaint it with the ARR markings. Also, have you thought of making a KC-135E(ARR) model available? I know it's not huge, but would be nice.  |

Why don't you repaint the EC-135C? Plus minus a few anteannas they are practically identical from the outside, both have the distinctive "black diamond." Hope this helps, Jay www.airliners.net/open.file/0501670/M/ |

Hrm... okay, might work better. I didn't think he had the boom still on the EC-135C. Didn't really look hard either, so... |

The EC-135C always had the boom. Hey if you do the repaint here lemme see how she came out Jay btw. what are u guys operating as far as RC-135's? Oh and if you guys are interested in a E-4A I just posted a posky repaint on simviation. She's not up yet but its a full package that looks great. You can see a screenshot of her refuling from a HJG KC-135 in the screenshot section. |

Right now we're not operating the RCs or E-4 due to difficulties with recreating their real-world mission on VATSIM (due mainly to the "no military flights in areas of contest" rule that has been determined by the VATSIM staff to include reconnaisance and cargo flights). The EC-135H is a "special" aircraft as it's going to be used by vUSAFE in place of the EC-135K as a deployment assist aircraft. I talked with some guys with the 100ARW (real world) and they still have the Air Staff that used to be on the EC-135Ks onboard for fighter deployments and they aren't very comfortable nor does the equipment work as well as it did on the EC-135H and EC-135K. As such, (for virtual purposes) we're re-instating the EC-135H mainly to escort fighter deployments around vUSAFE and to be the vUSAFE/CC aircraft in place of a C-32H (which gets boring after a while). |
