    If you are talking about fighters and small transport, yes, but this is a specialized transport. The C5 galaxy is nearly double the length, lifts over THREE times the weight. You have the Amazing Antonov 225 (one bombed by Russia, two partially built), The C5 Galaxy, the C17 Globemaster, the Antonov 124, The airbus A400…

    In the commercial space you have many more planes larger than the KC135

    Here is a KC135 refuelling a C5, to give you a sense of perspective.
