With the development of the air tanker, the capacity of being refueled by other tankers gradually becomes an essential capability to tanker designs. Currently, the tanker effectiveness analysis does not consider the ability of being refueled by other tankers. Through the development of tankers, it is indicated that the ability of be refueled is the requirement for tanker. To study the specific example of the tanker fleet remote deployment battles, it is known that the impact of refueling each other in tanker fleet to combat. On the basis of a detailed analysis of the tanker fleet refueling process, the tanker fleet refueling models with the ability of be refueled is established. Through the simulation to the refueling of the tanker fleet with the two model which the one model is no refueling each other and the second model is refueling each other, it is ana-lyzed that the significant impact by capacity of being refueled to tanker fleet on performance.
