    Military personnel in full combat gear are conducting a forward area refueling point (FARP) operation on a tarmac in front of a large military transport aircraft, likely a C-130 Hercules. One service member is kneeling on the ground handling a fuel hose nozzle, while others are moving toward the aircraft carrying equipment. The setting appears to be an austere or forward operating airfield with a reddish-brown tarmac surface.

    U.S. Air Force Forward Area Refueling Point specialists with the 18th Logistics Readiness Squadron participate in a FARP training exercise during Exercise Talisman Sabre 21, at Royal Australian Air Force Base Tindal, Australia, July 18, 2021. FARP operations with the MC-130J Air Commando II enable combat aircraft and ground vehicles to rapidly refuel and rearm simultaneously. FARP supports deep attack or special operations forces when distance covered exceeds the normal aircraft range. (U.S. Army photo by Pfc. Matthew Mackintosh)
