U.S. and Italian Air Force tankers fly together, supporting RED
A U.S. Air Force KC-46A Pegasus assigned to McConnell Air Force Base, Kansas, top, and an Italian Air Force KC-767 tanker, bottom, fly together over the Joint Pacific-Alaska Range Complex, during RED FLAG-Alaska 24-1, May 1, 2024. This exercise serves as an ideal platform for international engagement and the exercise has a long history of including allies and partners. This enables all parties involved to exchange tactics, techniques, and procedures while improving interoperability during full spectrum engagements which range from individual skills to complex, large-scale joint engagements.
