La fuerza aérea israelí ha comenzado a entrenarse en reabastecimiento rápido de aviones de combate en carreteras, ante un eventual conflicto militar con Irán. Esta es una práctica peligrosa, ya que los motores del avión estarían en marcha durante la operación. El objetivo es conseguir que los aviones dispongan del máximo de combustible para misiones de largo alcance. El nuevo protocolo, incluye la colocación de camiones cisterna en carreteras..
In preparation for long-range missions and possible conflict with Iran, the Israel Air Force has expanded its training programs to include rapid refueling operations on runways.
It’s a dangerous practice since the aircraft’s engines are running while the fuel nozzle is still connected to the jets. The training is for both pilots and ground crews and it is being done to enable the aircraft to carry as much fuel as possible for long-range missions. The new protocol includes keeping fuel trucks on the runway, having ground personnel reattach the nozzle and fuel the aircraft to the maximum fullness, disconnecting seconds before takeoff.
