KC-135

A KC-135 Stratotanker refuels an F-15 Eagle midflight. The Stratotanker was originally used to support bombers of the Strategic Air Command. The midair refueling capabilities allowed fighter missions to spend hours on the front lines, rather than a few minutes, which was usually due to the limited size of fuel tanks in the fighters.
