Support for B-52 mission in the Med

The main purpose of these KC135's is supplying fuel to French aircraft (Mirage 2000 and Rafale) operating in the Sahel.
Due to a lack of operational French tankers

Those KC-135 indeed refueled the B-52

Thank you! A reply to my post on Touchdown suggested 11-5738 for this, saying it returned to RS an hour later

Hi,
An U.S. Navy MH60S with reg. 168573 have been doing approaches and Low passes at LEZL this morning and afternoon. I guess it have departed and landed at Rota. By the way is so strange to see an US Aircraft training at a civilian airport like this. Anybody knows something about?

Regards
