The Royal Netherlands Air Force bought 2 DC-10s from Martinair in 1995. They were converted in the USA into the KDC-10, suitable for both tank and transport aircraft and modernized again in 2010. The aircraft were sold to the USA in 2021. To replace the KDC-10’s the Netherlands, together with its NATO partners Germany, Belgium, Norway and the Czech Republic, bought nine Airbus A330 MRTT (Multi Role Tanker Transport), five of which are stationed at Eindhoven Air Base.
I have bundled the repaints of the DC-10s of KLM and Martinair and the KDC-10 of the Royal Netherlands Air Force in one package which you can find in the downloads under the name: McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30 and KDC-10 Dutch pack , repaints only

Since 1994 The Royal Netherlands Air Force has two Lockheed C-130H-30 in its fleet. This is an extended version of the Hercules with 2.54 meters in front of the wing and 2.03 meters behind the wing. In 2010 another two second-hand C-130H, a non-extended version, were added. These replaced four Fokkers F 60 whose transport capacity was found to be too small. The C-130Hs were first overhauled and modernized in the UK before they joined the RNAF. It is expected that all C-130's will be replaced from 2026 onwards. A choice has yet to be made for the replacement. The aircraft are stationed at Eindhoven Air Base.

In 1949, the Armée de l'Air Française (French Air Force) decided to equip their flying schools with a two-seats jet-powered trainer. Turbomeca began with the study and construction of a engine with 400kg thrust. A suitable motor was not available at that time. Halfway through 1952 came the Turbomeca Marboré II with the desired thrust available. The by Air Fouga developed CM 170 made ??with these engines its first flight on 07.23.1952. Besides France ,the CM 170 was purchased by twenty countries. The total production amounted to 929 copies. Belgium ordered in 1958 45 Magisters to replace its T-6 Harvard and bought another 5 in 1970 from the German Air Force. Belgium and the Netherlands had a joint pilot training. During the Advanced Flight Training a 150 hours were flown on the Magister..

The Hawker Hunter designed by Sir Sydney Camm's design team made its maiden flight in 1951. A consortium of Fokker, Aviolanda, De Schelde in the Netherlands and Avions Fairey, SABCA and FN-Herstal in Belgium was commissioned in 1953 to produce 445 aircraft under license. FN-Herstal built the engines, while Fokker, SABCA and Fairey took care of the construction of the aircraft. Fokker built 189 Hunters Mk.4 and Mk.6 for the KLu plus 104 aircraft for the Belgians. 152 Hunters were built in Belgium. In the Netherlands, the Hunters replaced the Gloster Meteors. The first six Hunters Mk.4 for the Royal Netherlands Air Force were built at Hawker in England, while the other 90 aircraft were built by Fokker. The Mk.6 had a more powerful engine, sawtooth wings, improved steering and additional fuel pylons under the wings. The already delivered Mk.4 were later brought up to Mk.6 level. From 1963 to the end of 1968, the Hunters were gradually replaced by the Lockheed F-104G Starfighter. In total1,969 Hunters were built.
From October 1960 to September 1962 the first 12 Hunter Mk.4 aircraft flew with no. 322 squadron in Dutch New Guinea at Biak. At the end of December 1961, another 14 Hunter Mk.6 were added. Under pressure from the United Nations, Dutch New Guinea was handed over to Indonesia in 1962 and the Hunters went back to the Netherlands. The Mk.4 N-110 flew very shortly with the flag of Papua New Guinea on its tail. A pratical joke of the ground crew. In view of the tense political situation the commander in chief was "not amused" and the aircraft had to be brought back in its original livery.

The Piper Super Cub came into service in the early 1950s to replace the Auster Mk. III, which was already in use as AOP and liason aircraft. The Super Cub entered service with the 298, 299 and 300 squadron of the Light Aircraft Group. It was mainly used for reconnaissance and artillery observation. The aircraft was also used for training pilots for their limited Military License, which could be compared with a PPL(Private Pilot License) and by pilots with a full Military License, who left the RNAF after their three-year contract,to maintain their flying skills. The Piper Super Cubs were owned by the Royal Netherlands Army but flown and maintained by the Royal Netherlands Air Force. In total, the Royal Netherlands Army had 88 L-18Cs in service, 18 L-21As and 86 L-21Bs. The last left the service in 1975.

A year after the Lockheed 10 Electra was introduced, Lockheed started to develop a smaller version with the same engines, the Lockheed model 12 Electra Junior. The first flight took place in June 1936. From model 10 the military version 212 and a little later the L-12A was developed. The Marine Aviation Service of the Dutch East Indies Army(ML-KNIL) was the first customer and ordered at the end of 1938 12 aircraft of the version 212. From the beginning of 1940 they were used as a trainer, light bomber, exploration- and liaision airplane. The ML-KNIL eventually had 16 212s and 20 L-12a in its fleet. During the Second World War a few were confiscated by the Japanese and a few were flown to Australia and got into service with the RAAF. The Royal Netherlands Military Flying School at Jackson Air Force Base in the USA employed L-12A for the training of Dutch war pilots. After the war, five employed by Transport command of the NethAF at Valkenburg. In 1951 the last three were sold to Sweden. The L2-38 of the National Military Museumis the former T-2, sold to Sweden, resold to Denmark and repurchased by the National Military Museum for restoration. A total of 130 Electra Juniors were built in five different versions. The Lockheed in National Military Museum in Soesterberg is of course an L-12A. Unfortunately, no freeware model is from the L-12A available.I therefore used the L-10 model of FS Design Berlin as an alternative.

For the training of both military and civilian pilots the North American Harvard has been of considerable importance. In 1935 North American introduced the NA-16. From this prototype, the trainer AT-6 Texan was developed. Already in 1938 the plane was ordered by the USAAF, the RAF and France. The RAF renamed the AT-6 in Harvard. Over the years a number of modifications were added which resulted in the variants Harvard II, IIA and IIB. In total there are more than 15,000 Harvard and AT-6's built of which 1500 at Noorduyn in Canada. Immediately after WII the LSK (later KLU, Royal Netherlands Air Force) bought 150 Harvard IIB from the RAF, of which six units were used for spare parts. Again in 1947 20 more were bought from South Africa as well to be used for spare parts.Once more in 1949, 50 were acquired from the RCAF. After an overhaul at Fokker, Amsterdam these were added to the fleet.All Dutch registered Harvards were built at Noorduyn, The B-56 (ex RAF FT176) has flown by the KLU till 1965 and then transferred to the MLD(Dutch Naval Airservice) and got the new registration 043. In 1971 the aircraft was sold and registered as PH-KMA. In 1978 the registration was canceled.
