Test pilots and flight test engineers from the 418th Flight Test Squadron join aircrew from the Royal Air Force and Royal Australian Air Force during a mission brief at Edwards Air Force Base. Aircrews from the USAF, RAAF, and RAF worked together to rapidly certify the RAAF E-7A with the USAF KC-46A for aerial refueling. The trilateral test also allowed the United Kingdom and United States Air Force to gain early test experience ahead of their anticipated fielding of E-7 aircraft variants.
