About This File
The KC-10 Extender
I made this mod after noticing that the aircraft in ODS was
using a skin that was not use IRL until 3-4 years after Desert
Storm. This fixes up skins for the Douglas (White over Grey with
Blue cheatlines), Shamu (Green/Gray over Gray)and Gunship Gray
schemes. I also added historical serial numbers to each skin, and
did the unit markings tied into each serial number. (for you advanced
modders out there, tied it as a 2 level rather than a 1 level). This will
allow several units to appear when they show in game on the ramp.
Installation
just add Objects folder to your mod folder. If installing into an ODS
install, allow overwrites.
Additional Warning
*************************************************************************
this really should be left as an AI controlled plane. it is not really
for any missons that would be represented in game anyhow.
i just skinned it up to satisfy a little historical accuracy in the game.

Marcfighters..........the model and original skin(served as a base for template)
eburger68.............revised data.ini that made the FM more manageable
myself................all other skins, template and tgas

special thanks to Muesli, for helping me out trying to get the Dutch in the game as well.
suggestion to those with mission editor:
why not set up teh tankers on an orbit at a waypoint of a mission?
then you could "simulate" tanking as part of the missions......
