Hot refueling on the fly

Airmen standby as a KC-135R Stratotanker is refueled, July 12, 2023, at Selfridge Air National Guard Base, Michigan. Hot refueling allows an aircraft’s engines to remain running while being refueled, increasing the capabilities of aircraft to land anywhere, refuel and take-off much faster.
