Need to transport 60,000 liquid fuel units somewhere, or do some in-air refuelling? Then boy do I have the aircraft for you!

This heckin’ chonker has 86 tires and 24 engines, which are just enough to comfortably yank it off the ground and into flight.
It has a grabber on one under-wing pod and a shielded docking port on the other if you’d like to torture yourself by attempting in-air refuelling.

It has a wet mass of 473 tons and a dry mass of 173 tons - that is, it can carry nearly twice its own weight in fuel!

Flight Instructions & Action Groups

Rotate at 75m/s, beware tailstrikes. Top speed ASL is somewhere north of 200 m/s.
AG1 for Flaps, AG2 for the tail APU, AG3 for reversers.
