A KC-135R Stratotanker aircraft crew from the 507th Air Refueling Wing conducts aerial refueling on multiple A-10C Thunderbolt II. The A-10C, commonly referred to as the "Warthog," is the first U.S. Air Force aircraft designed specifically for close air support of ground forces. The simple, effective, and survivable twin-engine jet aircraft is utilized against light maritime attack assets and all ground targets, including tanks and armored vehicles.
The 507th ARW, an Air Force Reserve Command unit based out of Tinker Air Force Base, is the largest Reserve flying unit in Oklahoma. The wing operates and maintains the KC-135R Stratotanker to provide global aerial refueling support to U.S. and NATO forces. (U.S. Air Force photo by Breonna Summers)
