There are some KC-135R that can not take off from single unit airfields that should be suitable for very large aircraft. When i try to add them, i get a warning.

Found the problem. All the affected tankers use Take-off/Landing Distance: 3201-4000m. The unaffected tankers use 2600-3200m. Should be reported on the DB GitHub. Could be intentional but it's probably an oversight.
