Airmen from the 344th Air Refueling Squadron, McConnell Air Force Base, Kansas, and two KC-46s spent time here to train alongside KC-135 Stratotanker aircrew at RAF Mildenhall, England, Aug. 18, 2020. 

 
The KC-46 has undergone extensive testing this past year, and the successful completion of its first aeromedical evacuation in July 2020 represents a significant milestone in the aircraft’s ability to demonstrate one of its three mission sets: aerial refueling, airlift and aeromedical evacuation.
