SINGAPORE - The Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) has been using the KC-135R aerial tanker for more than two decades, in which time air crew have established a strong rapport with it.
The aircraft were bought second-hand from the United States in 1997, and since then they have carried out air-to-air refuelling for international forces, taken part in humanitarian missions and joined the recent Defeat-ISIS coalition in the Middle East.
