Preparations for building Light tanker
S(uper)Light tanker old size was a bit too large comparing to Light tanker, so I have update it.
Still need little adapter with 2 docking ports to get excat size, but maybe I will find solution for this problem later.

Thanks guys
I was building some more and I made discovery (revolutionary I believe!
)...
space fleet without fuel is just a space junk, so we need tankers.
V-SLight tanker
initial 82 parts ~280t
tank + engines 48 parts ~32t
engines 34 parts 13t
tank without engines 6 parts 18.5t
Single tanker is boring, but once we have more of them on orbit, we can connect them...
Better, but engines in front and back are bad...
time for 180 turn...
and connect both engines modules
Now we can take that fuel far away
If you need only 2 engines it is fine, you can land and recover other 2 on planet... just undock
Break with engines on 100%
Enjoy

V-Light tanker is done![:)](//kerbal-forum-uploads.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/emoticons/default_k_smiley.gif)
initial: 110 parts ~441t
tanker + engines: 45 parts ~49t
engines: 37 parts ~12t
tanker: 8 parts ~36t
Changed engines module, now should be more stable
100 km orbit and still got fuel
V-Light tanker.craft
EDIT:
connected V-Light tankers
Well 2 is not enough to create cool ship... later I will try to connect 4 tankers and some adapter for engines and front, so it should be possible to attach there craft and use 4 light tankers + engines from them as drive section for bigger ships that need to go for loooong rides![:)](//kerbal-forum-uploads.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/emoticons/default_k_smiley.gif)
