A KC-135 Stratotanker parks on the flight line after a refueling flight Oct. 23, 2015 at Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash. This Fairchild aircraft was the first of 22 airframes to be modified with an upgraded instrument panel. The upgrade keeps the aircraft modernized and extends their utilization. The KC-135’s principal mission is air refueling support to U.S. Air Force, Navy and Marine Corps aircraft and aircraft of allied nations. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Samantha Krolikowski)
A KC-135 Stratotanker taxis to its spot number after a refueling flight Oct. 23, 2015 at Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash. This particular aircraft was the first of 22 projected Block- 45 aircraft scheduled to be part of Fairchild’s fleet by fiscal year 2022. The Block 45 upgrade addresses critical aircraft equipment and safety of flight issues including a new auto pilot, a new radio altimeter and an LCD screen that replaces analog gauges and makes other minor changes.

Staff Sgt. Shawna Sims, a 92nd Air Refueling Squadron KC-135 Stratotanker boom operator from Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash., refuels a B-52H Stratofortress from Minot Air Force Base, N.D., during an aerial refueling mission as part of exercise AMALGAM DART 15-2 May 28, 2015, over the Alaskan coastline. The B-52 is a long-range, heavy bomber that can perform a variety of missions and is capable of flying at high subsonic speeds at altitudes up to 50,000 feet. The KC-135 was originally designed to perform aerial refueling primarily for the B-52 when they were built in the mid-1950s and early-1960s. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Benjamin W. Stratton)

Shawna Sims, a 92nd Air Refueling Squadron KC-135 Stratotanker boom operator from Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash., connects with a B-52H Stratofortress from Minot Air Force Base, N.D., during an aerial refueling mission as part of exercise AMALGAM DART 15-2 May 28, 2015, over the Alaskan coastline. AMALGAM DART, a North American Aerospace Defense Command exercise, is an annual training opportunity affording American and Canadian forces field training exercises aimed at improving NORAD’s operational capability in a bi-national environment. The exercise spanned two forward operating locations in Canada’s Northwest Territory, two U.S. Air Force bases in Alaska and a mobile radar site in Resolute, Nunavut, as well as, the sky over much of NORAD’s area of responsibility.

The boom of a 92nd Air Refueling Wing KC-135 Stratotanker from Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash., enables the aircraft’s boom operators to discharge the tanker’s 200,000 pounds of fuel into other jets during aerial refueling operations like those conducted during exercise AMALGAM DART 15-2 at Eielson AFB, Alaska, May 26 to June 1, 2015. The KC-135 provides the core aerial refueling capability for the U.S. Air Force and has excelled in this role for more than 50 years. This unique asset enhances the Air Force's capability to accomplish its primary mission of global reach. It also provides aerial refueling support to Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps and allied nation aircraft like the Royal Canadian Air Force CF-18 Hornets that participated in this annual North American Aerospace Defense Command bi-national exercise.
