The 'C' in KC designated aircraft is for 'Transport', the 'K' was allocated for Tankers, however no stand alone Tankers were purchased so there are no 'K-' aircraft.
The purpose of categories here is to narrow down searches so the question is would a user select 'Cargo Aircraft' to find air-to-air tankers? Probably not!
So I guess the answer is no! A C-135 select 'Cargo', a KC-135 do not!
Is there any category needed to be ticked for an image of a Boeing 737-500? The aircraft is already almost 30 years old. Please tell me if there's anything needed to be ticked thanks!

A very good question! I just wondered if jetphotos is the best platform to talk about Turboprops.
Greetings.
Well, that reminds me of another question, Is jetphotos a good site for uploading glider photos?
And I do not mean gliders, that are equipped with a jet engine.
And also, are gliders equipped with a retractable propeller considered a small prop?
Potentially, the small prop question can even apply to ME-163 Komet as it is equiped with a really tiny propeller, but maybe Komet would require a special "Tiny Prop" category.
I’m trying to submit a photo of a turbo-prop aircraft to the queue, but I’m confused weather or not I should tick the small prop box.
thank you!
A very good question! I just wondered if jetphotos is the best platform to talk about Turboprops.
And you just gave me the answer. Yes!
Honestly, I have never in my life tried to seriously upload one jetphoto to the jetphotos queue (!) . My being here is rather defined by.. knowledge about my home airport,
and knowledge about my favorite airline, and knowledge about my favorite aircraft. All three are to be found in my avatar, or in my signature.
Is a Beech B200 still a small prop?
By range I'd say, no. A twin propeller with more than 1000 nautical miles range in my eyes is no longer small.
So, how do we define a small propeller. Up to 10 passenger seats. And what about an Antonov An-2P. No twin turboprop, and no turboprop at all, but designed for up to 12 passengers
(according to wikipedia).
In my eyes, a Beech B200 is rather a small twin turboprop, but I'd not decide for 'small prop' in case of the B200 .
Good to see that this platform, which I love so very much since almost 14 years, is also good for propeller talk .
I'm pondering whether the Piaggio Avanti is "small prop" or not. My instinct would say "no" (twin prop in a genuinely bizjet-role), but the guidelines say props designed for up to 10 pax ARE "small" (the P180 is built for 7-8 pax).
