A U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster aircraft parks on a taxiway as it delivers fuel to an R-11 fuel truck at Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, April 9, 2021. Aircrews from the 816th Expeditionary Airlift Squadron with the help of the 379th Expeditionary Logistics Readiness Squadron were certified to safely deliver fuel to aircraft operating in austere U.S. Central Command locations. Simulating another aircraft, an R-11 fuel truck received fuel from the Aerial Bulk Fuel Delivery System aboard the C-17. The extra capability enables the C-17 to support Agile Combat Employment, by reducing the amount of vehicles and equipment required to sustain fueling operations.
