A U.S. Air Force KC-135
Stratotanker, from 191st Air Refueling Squadron from Salt Lake City, Utah, took
part at the 2014 Aeroexpo Marrakech Trade Show in Morocco. And refueled some
Royal Moroccan Air Force F-16s during its stay in North Africa.
A U.S. Air Force C-130J Super
Hercules from the 37th Airlift Squadron based out of Ramstein
Air Base, Germany and a KC-135
Stratotanker took part to the 2014 Aeroexpo Marrakech Trade
Show. These assets were chosen because
“they are critical to the success of current and future multinational military
operations in Africa.”
The importance of aerial refuelers in the region was also highlighted by the Libya War in 2011, when the U.S. had to support the air campaign with the majority of the tankers required to sustain the air strikes.
