- German Air Force officers boarded a U.S. Air Force KC-135 mid-air refueling aircraft where they got to ride along during a refueling mission with the Iowa National Guard's 185th Air Refueling Wing.
During the flight they crawled in the back of the aircraft in order to witness a mid-air refueling of F-16 fighter aircraft.
Following the flight they were allowed to take the helm in a KC-135 refueling simulator, where they practiced refueling while safely on the ground.
As part of the Defense Military Reserve Exchange Program, officers from various NATO member states come to the United States to get first had look at how military reserve organizations in the U.S. operate.

About 40 years ago I was in the USAF and rode Space Available back from Hickam AFB in Hawaii to March AFB in California on an empty KC-135. I was lucky to get this ride as I was on leave and didn't take my uniform with me; I'd ridden out on a MAC flight which didn't require a uniform but KC-135s, as part of SAC at the time, generally required active duty members to wear a uniform to ride Space-A. The aircraft commander let me ride anyway, and I was freezing, not having taken a jacket. Those of you who've ridden Space-A know it can get pretty cold. They let me lay down in the boom operator's area which was like a padded bench with tank controls. Problem is that the coldest air was pooled at the lowest point of the plane, which was right there. I stayed as long as I could stand it, as there is a view out to the left and right of the boom. Nothing but ocean but still very unique. It was a great and relatively unique experience!
thankyou for your service mate
I sure hope they had their phones in airplane mode. Wouldnt want a text to knock them out of the sky
I put my smartphone in airplane mode & threw it off the Eiffel tower, didn't fly at all, stupid phone smashed to pieces..
I worked on KC-135’s back in the day. Great plane. Brings back memories.
An old airframe design too. I believe some of them might be approaching 100 years of age by the time they are finally retired. In itself, that says so much about how well they were designed.
When I was a young kid our YMCA bus group went to grissom Air Force Base and got to sit inside of the boom operator seat on a KC 135 while it was sitting on the ground we also got to see F4 phantoms do low level flybys and at that time I believe grissomer for space was still a sack base strategic Air command but I'll never forget that as long as I live it was the coolest thing ever and you guys have the greatest job in the world.
Parabéns às forças armadas dos EUA vocês são o orgulho do seu país e para nós que servimos o exército brasileiro de 1980 a 2017 Deus os proteja
Nice footage
Randomly found this is my recommendations, this is my base lmao
that is some advanced simulation technology. Oh wait.....
haha...
Excelente video!. 👍👍.
Marvellous good Footage The tank airplane work in the sky to refulling the jet fighter, Good source too, GBU.... Bravo.
i got to play with a sim once when i was doing my two weeks in the guard. lol i scratch the shit out of an f-22. i was just slamming the boom on the jet trying to spell my name on the sheet metal :D
She is recording on portrait mode...... -__-"
woman...
lol
Probably for her Insta.

I am one of several KC-135 engineers that have the opportunity of working with excellent and committed operational and maintenance officers of the USAF...the best on this planet. NKAWTG
Appears to a Block 45 aircraft.
How much do you get paid?
And we even got to eat lunch at an Air Force cafeteria.
Was that first F-16 a Have Glass bird?

Good job
I though that the plane had a blast (ka-boom)
Let's invite some nice looking German ladies. Great idea.
Is this the Luftwaffe ?
Yup
Luftwaffe doesn‘t operate KC-135
Xoa hinh anh ten van anh
That's a typical German girl. Cool to see by their faces where they originally coming from. BTW, I'm Dutch.
So you are saying that the typical German girl can fly military planes?
HoldShiftt2Run I think he’s saying how Asians can tell each other apart, like Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc; these old bloodline Europeans can do the same. they can just tell by how the migration of humans had made certain genetic traits more prominent in some societies.
I agree, she is typically naive. Anyone in the german military is naive. The tragedy is that they do not know it and think they are employed to secure peace and order. It's a waste of time because to this day they are only allowed to deal with bad branches and not the root. But is there any military from any country in the world that can solve greed, malice and lawlessness?
I don't know too much about the american military, I am just thankful that they saved my country from tyranny 75 years ago. I am german of origin
Pretty girls!
wartet das ist doch mein bro von der bpk
Zat German AF girl is hot!
Du bist Deutsche Sprache ist total falsch
SABERX GAMING & RESTORATIONS I am german and your comment makes no fcking sense 😂
Why they censored their ranks with tape?
lostplace11 because they aren’t in command and control of the aircraft and foreign rank has no significance. Also to avoid confusion on who is the OIC.
and also that was no german flight suit, maybe just one she borrowed
MoritzM. Also a good observation!
@@truckproam.2218Ahh no. I've seen enlisted borrow flight suits for incentive rides and the officer rank gets taped over so there's no perception of impersonation of an officer and thus no customs or courtesies extended (salutes, called sir/ma'am etc). I'll bet dollars to donuts she's using a borrowed flight suit (perhaps that of the female co-pilot) so the rank was covered so she won't be wearing the rank of an American USAF officer.They're all wearing US flight suits. If you notice the male had a major oak leaf on his name tag to indicate to the Americans what his rank in the German AF is equivalent to.
Jeff K big oof on my part bro. I was just throwing my 2 cents into the ring and guess I should’ve just kept my mouth shut. Thanks for informing me and not being a total douche while doing it.
She refueled a B-1?
ओम शांति ओम 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
What is it just me or did I see Charlie don’t Milio
Cool
At 1:54 what is that craft they are fueling?
B-1 Lancer
F-14 seeking Mama's CHICHE he's hungry
Rasheed Fagbohun
No europe poor pups oils mine
Spies
there just happy to see working equipment. 🤣
What is that supposed to mean?
@@scottyweimuller6152 It means the German defence budget cant maintain it forces and they are struggling to keep their equipment working.
@@darksensai1184 umm you do realize what happened after WWII was over right? Jesus christ dude use your brain.
@@scottyweimuller6152 It has nothing to do with WWII. www.thesun.co.uk/news/2974916/germany-army-size-military-cuts-nato/
@@darksensai1184 it has everything to do with WII dude, have you been living under a rock cause last I checked us Germans can't have a huge military because of what happened in WWII. We almost dominated the entire world and you really think any country is ever going let that happen again? No. Thats why our military is so small and not a superpower. In layman's terms maybe you'll understand ill put it like this. The rest of the world doesn't want Germany to build up another huge military force and try dominating the world again so NATO stripped Germany of nearly all of our abilities to have and maintain a giant military. What don't you understand here kiddo? Plus if you haven't noticed the Americans put a massive airbase in Germany and basically run the Bundeswehr in many aspects. So you're either severely uneducated or dumb.
anyone else concerned that luftwafe is training pilots for air to air refueling?
*Luftwaffe
@Proud Indian True unfortunately.I thoguht of becoming a Luftwaffe Pilot
Proud Indian stop being ridiculous
No, my wife is a GAF A400M pilot and does air to air refueling all the time. Its nothing new and by the way the Luftwaffe and USAF are part of the coalition forces and work side by side a lot of the time.

Unsere Freunde auf Deutschland 🇩🇪 Wie gehts 👋

0:31 she looks like female ryan gosling
Great Air Force from Pakistan
Who's that blondie??
They're training on a real KC-135 and not a simulator.
For the first part of the flight they are on actual incentive flight conducting AR for F-16s. The very end shows them in the BOSS simulator where the one female is being instructed to bring in a B-1.
keep watching past the intro and you see the simulator enjoyment
👍👍👍
German AF female officers are hot!
What do you think about the German Bundeswehr?
shit kindergarten.
That looks like the real thing it’s not a simulator! Duh!!
德国曾经的霸主

LOVES ,,,,888*13
Wow..the GERMAN gal wasn't a 300 lb lesbian like alot of the American female soldiers
TISH KerrVille you're right, the Germans haven't grown up with fast food and sugary sodas.
bat sure girl by luftwaffe also many lesbian women
What's the point of insulting american female soldiers, at the end of the day our millitary is stronger than yours and can whoop your ass blindfolded.
@@gordo1163 ooooh yes - Worthless order following War Mongering cun{{ - somethin' to be so proud of
@@gordo1163 Can't prove that. Since WWII we have 1 tie 1 loss and 1 who knows what to call it.
Its Not called german air Force!!!! Its calle deutsche Luftwaffe and by the way try to speak Eichhörnchen
Hab's geschafft, wie krass
The German military are good people, sadly they have no equipment. Aircraft. The German and other euro governments would rather spend their military spending on home made, home grown equipment which is poor quality. German, euro built fighter aircraft are nearly all grounded due to poor performance and maintenance. Canada, Norway, Denmark and others that fly US built aircraft have much better readiness. US Air Force parts and maintenance is everywhere in the World, easy to keep yours flying too.
Germany and France have just purchased a few NEW C-130J's
Well i think we´re gonna get a few Super Hornets soon. But i guess they will be grounded soon. :DD
The Leopard 2A7, the Eurofighter and the Agusta Westland are good machines
in the plane situation you could be right as to now, but only because there isnt given money to thoses projects. in terms of handheld weapons, tanks, drones and all kind of other things where money acutally is spend to develope further, german products outrange foreign by far. would that country spend real money on the other branches, like bigger ships, planes or bigger helicopters, it would own these branches too, probably
4th Reich soldiers.
The blonde at 0:30 is quite cute.....
