KUALA LUMPUR: The Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) has made history by conducting its first-ever Air-to-Air Refuelling (AAR) training between its Russian-made Sukhoi Su-30MKM fighter and the United States Air Force (USAF) KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft.
The AAR took place in conjunction with the bilateral Subject Matter Expert Exchange (SMEE) training between the RMAF, the United States Pacific Air Forces (US PACAF) and the Washington Air National Guard (WAANG) from Nov 12 to 13.
