EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from The Tony Lovelock Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, we witness a scene of aerial refueling prowess at McConnell Air Force Base, Kansas, in 1997. The United States Air Force's Boeing KC-135R Stratotanker, identified by its serial number 64-14828 and manufacturing serial number 18768, proudly sits among its brethren on the flight line. The KC-135R, a military variant of the iconic Boeing 707, is a strategic aerial refueling tanker, capable of extending the range and endurance of military aircraft. The image captures the essence of the strategic importance of the KC-135R in military aviation. With its distinctive hose and drogue refueling system extended, the tanker is poised to deliver its precious cargo - jet fuel - to thirsty military aircraft. The surrounding flight line is filled with a myriad of other aircraft, each with their unique roles in the military's aerial arsenal. The Boeing KC-135R Stratotanker, with its impressive service history, continues to play a crucial role in the United States Air Force's mission to project power and protect American interests around the world. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of the KC-135R and the critical role it plays in the realm of military aviation. The scene at McConnell Air Force Base in 1997 is a snapshot of history, showcasing the power, precision, and teamwork required to keep the world's most advanced military aircraft in the air.
