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 MICRO Forward Area Refueling Equipment (FARE) Kit has previously been used on CH-47s and C-130 aircraft, this is the first time it is being certified for use on the bigger KC-135.
“This kit will allow aircrew and maintenance personnel to be capable of refueling the aircraft for virtually any possible fuel source and get it off the ground in a time-sensitive and degraded infrastructure environment,” said Master Sgt. Robert McFadden, 151st Aircraft Maintenance Squadron KC-135R crew chief.
