The 767 will accommodate any combination of these configurations. Smiths Aerospace supply the hydraulically-powered hose and drogue refuelling system. The fuselage can also be fitted with a centreline refuelling boom for boom and receptacle refuelling missions.Boeing will produce the boom itself and Smiths the boom actuation system. BAE Systems has been selected to supply the CsLEOS real-time operating system for boom control. The boom can refuel at the rate of 600gal/min, the centreline hose at 600gal/min and the wingpods at 400gal/min.The USAF air fuel transfer method is through the boom and receptacle air refuelling technique. The US Navy, the US Marines and NATO aircraft have traditionally used the hose and drogue air refuelling method.In the cargo configuration, the KC-767 aircraft can transport 19 standard military 463-L palletsAircraft using hose and drogue refuelling include US Navy F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and USMC AV-8B Harrier Plus aircraft. Aircraft using the flying boom refuelling system include the USAF F-111, F-15, F-16, the UK Eurofighter and the French F-1 Mirage. Future aircraft such as the Joint Strike Fighter will be developed for the optional installation of either refuelling system according to the customer country's operational requirements.Tankers are fitted with tactical floodlights on the engine pylons, wing pods and the boom area to assist night-time refuelling operations. The drogue itself is fitted with small lights around the perimeter to help night operations. New generation highly ruggedised and impact resistant air-to-air refuelling drogues have been fitted with gaseous tritium lights with no wires or moving parts."Por otra parte GE ofrece este otro POD para complementar los Tigre III y EF, Refale futuros::yonofui:<a href="http://www.geaviationsystems.com/Products--/Military-Mission-Systems/Aerial-Refuelling/Wing-Aerial-Refuelling-Pod--WARP-/index.asp">http://www.geaviationsystems.com/Products--/Military-Mission-Systems/Aerial-Refuelling/Wing-Aerial-Refuelling-Pod--WARP-/index.asp</a>Saludosdo</blockquote>
