A Royal Moroccan Air Force F-16 Fighting Falcon completes a simulated air-to-air refuel qualification by a U.S. Air Force KC-135R Stratotanker assigned to the 166th Air Refueling Squadron, 121st Air Refueling Wing, Ohio National Guard, based in Rickenbacker Air National Guard, Ohio, during African Lion 2025 (AL25) in Marrakesh, Morocco, May 21, 2025. The KC-135R conducted simulated refueling for 21 F-16s during their mission. AL25, the largest annual military exercise in Africa, brings together over 50 nations, including seven NATO allies and 10,000 troops to conduct realistic, dynamic and collaborative training in an austere environment that intersects multiple geographic and functional combatant commands. Led by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF,) on behalf of the U.S. Africa Command, AL25 takes place from April 14 to May 23, 2025, across Ghana, Morocco, Senegal, and Tunisia. This large-scale exercise will enhance our ability to work together in complex, multi-domain operations—preparing forces to deploy, fight, and win. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Alexandra M.
