This aircraft is the Airbus A330-243 Multi Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) for MSFS2020

-----IMPORTANT-----
Due to issues caused by overwritng files, This now requires you to have the Headwind A339X to work!!!

The Exterior model of this aircraft was originally from Thomas Ruth. The model was imported into Blender and re-animated as well as areas like the engines, drogues and various antennas across the model were remade and animated. The textures were redone in 8K texture resolution with more accurate details closer to the real A330-243 MRTT.

The interior model is from the freeware Headwind Airbus A330-900 neo. 

Both the KC.2 and the KC.3 have been modelled for this package with the difference being the KC.2 has only the 2 Drogue pods, while the KC.3 has both the wing pods and the newer Centerline Drogue !

Currently, the Boom works with the drogues tied to the "Strobe lights" as I am in the middle of finding the best way to make them function seperately without overridng any of the original Headwind Files!

ANIMATIONS
For animations, all flight control animations work including spoilers, flaps and slats.

• Landing gear , gear doors, engines, thrust reversers and doors function correctly.
• Animated Drogues & Boom that work across Multiplayer
• Wingflex is also included and does not affect the position of the droques when in flight/cruise across multiplayer.

LIVERIES

Currently only 4:

• RAF - ZZ336 (KC.2)
• RAF - ZZ337 (KC.3)
• Factory Primer (BOOM RR engines)
• Factory Primer (BOOM GE engines)

LIGHTING

• Navs, strobes, beacons, taxi lights and landing lights are all functional and accurate following photo & video references.
• Full lighting for the baskets and drogue pods that are accurate!
• Functioning lights for drogue / boom operations and drogue / boom visibility across multiplayer!
• Formation lights that work across multiplayer!

KEYBINDS

Drogues - Wing lights

Boom / Center line drogue - Strobe lights

Formation Lights (Works across Multiplayer) - recognition lights

 

For anyone having issue with GSX not recognizing the parking brake.

Spawn with the MRTT on the runway. Open the GSX menu and press the "Customize Airplane" button.
In the pop-up window should be a box called "Parking brakes test".
Enter the following line into that box: "(L:A32NX_PARK_BRAKE_LEVER_POS,number) (L:A32NX_GND_EQP_IS_VISIBLE, number) ||" (without the quotation marks). Press save and close the window.
Once you are warped or spawned back on stand, you should be able to use GSX again as you wish without it screaming to set your parking brakes.

( Thank you to "softpxl" for figuring this one out! )
