Boom vs Drogue

Deliverance

I suggest that the comparison you have made is not valid here. A Voyager could refuel 2 probe and drogue F35 at the same time (over 1000 kg/min each) so unless a boom version of the same ac could take fuel at over 2000kg /min (I don't know ) the probe system would be quicker.
