    U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Jacob Ellis, 99th Air Refueling Squadron boom operator, operates the boom pod of a KC-135 Stratotanker, assigned to the 117th Air Refueling Wing, Sumpter Smith Joint National Guard Base, Alabama, to refuel an F-35A Lightning II assigned to the 388th Fighter Wing, Hill Air Force Base, Utah, during a Red Flag-Nellis 25-3 mission over the Nevada Test and Training Range, July 21, 2025. By enabling in-flight refueling for aircraft, Stratotanker crews play a vital role in extending mission range, strengthening joint training and replicating real-world combat scenarios.
