Hot-pit refueling with 67th AMU and 18th LRS

A U.S. Air Force pilot assigned to the 67th Fighter Squadron taxis a F-15C Eagle for a hot-pit refueling at Kadena Air Base, Japan, Jan. 16, 2024. Hot-pit refueling allows aircraft to stay in the air longer, providing fuel to the fight and minimizing time spent on the ground. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Melany Bermudez)
