A kit that allows the KC-135 aerial refueling tanker to take on or give fuel to aircraft or ground vehicles has been tested by the 151st Air Refueling Wing.
The Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve Test Center (AATC)-KC-135 Test Detachment, working with the 151st Air Refueling Wing, Salt Lake City, Utah, test the Micro Forward Area Refueling Equipment (FARE) Kit on the KC-135R Stratotanker on Sep. 14, 2022 on Roland R. Wright Air Base, Utah. The Micro FARE kit will also assist the KC-135R with the Agile Combat Employment operating concept. Without the reliance on main operating bases refueling capabilities, this system will provide the ability to refuel anywhere in the world at any time.(U.S. Air Force National Guard photo by Tech.
