Pre-flight tanker maintenance during Exercise Nordic Response 24

A U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker assigned to the 100th Air Refueling Wing, right, sits next to a 168th Wing, Alaska Air National Guard KC-135, left, at Sola Air Station, Stavanger, Norway, March 13, 2024. The 100th ARW exercised their ability to implement reactive agile combat employment during exercise Nordic Response 24 when they had to divert into Stavanger to sustain flying operations for NR24. The unexpected location shift highlighted the ability of U.S. forces to land at an Ally’s base, rapidly setup and begin flying operations alongside their ANG counterparts. Movement and maneuverability are critical elements of ACE and require integration with our Allies and partners to be effective. (U.S. Air Force photo by Tech. Sgt. Steven Adkins)
