gmac Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Did Lockheed ever build B model tankers and if so, did they differ structurally from regular B models? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEFEGeorge Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Navy/Marines had F models, not sure about Air Force. Not sure about "structure". Would guess the same as a regular B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdaley Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 The B model tankers were all conversions from regular B's The KC130F's I should defer to some of the Marines but as I remember, they had different fuel plumbing for the refueling and different overhead FE fuel panels at least.

hlg6016 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I recall some avionics that where specific to the KC's also and an airframe change that put new wings on them in the late 70's to early 80's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
