According the the Air Mobility Command Museum's Spec sheet on the C-141F, it is essentially a stretched "A" model with two added sections to the fuselage totalling 23' 4". One before the wing and the other aft of it. It increased the cargo capacity by a third and had the same results as increasing the C-141 fleet by 1/3.
