Super Hornets Refuel Over the Northern Territory, Australia
NORTHERN TERRITORY, ACT, Australia (July 13, 2015) - A Royal Australian Air Force KC-30A Multi Role Tanker Transport refuels a RAAF F/A-18 Hornet alongside other U.S. and Australian fighters during a refueling training exercise as part of Talisman Sabre 2015. U.S. and Australian forces are conducting air refueling missions throughout the Talisman Sabre 2015 exercise to improve interoperability and familiarization with each other's procedures. Talisman Sabre is a biennial exercise that provides an invaluable opportunity for nearly 30,000 U.S. and Australian defense forces to conduct operations in a combined, joint and interagency environment that will increase both countries' ability to plan and execute a full range of operations from combat missions to humanitarian assistance efforts.
