I think that mid-air refueling should be an implemented system. Military transport planes cannot reach around the world which makes alot of headaches. In real life the air force will refuel these planes mid-air, thus extending their overall operational range. It'd be real cool if we had that as well

I like it. Good idea.

Reaching around the world should not be easy.
we have given air transport a long range but when you aim at very very long distance, there should be a place half way, where you need to refuel.

We could increase the range by changing a number in the code but that is not what we aimed at.

refueling in the air would be very complex for you and for us.

Andy- I understand that it should not be easy. If refueling mid air isnt possible, then can you make it so that transport planes can do "hops" between remote depots? I can create a remote depot past 15,000km from my home country, but it never gets supplied because transport planes cannot reach it. i've tried placing a second remote depot half-way between the two at ~7,500km and transport planes can get to that, but still refuse to go to the one thats over 15,000km away as they are still "based" in my home country. if you could allow them to just "hop" from depot to depot almost like what i did when i went to afghanistan from the US, then thatd help.
