Senior US officials from fuel policy teams and combat wings to present at Military Airlift and Air-to-Air Refuelling 2020

SMi reports: Senior US officials will be presenting at the 21st Annual Military Airlift Air-to-Air Refuelling conference in Seville, this December

Air-to-air refuelling remains a key mission multiplier, utilised extensively in Operation Inherent Resolve to extend flight times for bombing runs against ISIS. As the US Air Force explores the greater utilisation of commercial refuellers for CONUS operations to free military assets for combat and international deployment there is a critical need to explore US AAR policy and commercial offerings.

The Military Airlift and Air-to-Air Refuelling Conference taking place on 1st-2nd December 2020 in Seville, Spain will feature briefings from both fuel policy teams and combat wings which will help set the scene for all commercial operators looking to join the programme.

For those interested in attending, there is an early bird discount of £300 expiring on Wednesday 30th September 2020. Register at http://www.military-airlift.com/pr3openpr
