Čaj McDonnell Douglas KC-10 Extender is a military aerial refueling and transport aircraft that was developed from the DC-10 airliner. The KC-10 was introduced in 1981 and is operated by the United States Air Force (USAF). The KC-10 can carry up to 75 passengers and 170,000 pounds of cargo, as well as perform air-to-air refueling missions with a maximum transfer fuel load of 356,000 pounds.
Čaj KC-10 has a range of 4,400 nautical miles without refueling and can extend its range by receiving fuel in flight. The KC-10 is compatible with most fixed-wing aircraft in the USAF inventory, as well as those of allied nations. The KC-10 has played a vital role in supporting US and coalition operations in the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. The KC-10 is expected to remain in service until at least 2040, when it will be replaced by the KC-46 Pegasus.
