KC-135 Stratotanker

A U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft assigned to the 186th Air Refueling Wing redeploys in support of Exercise Bamboo Eagle 25-3 at Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, July 31, 2025. The exercise demonstrates the U.S. Air Force’s ability to operate and deliver follow-on forces in a contested, dynamic environment against complex threats on short notice with over 100 aircraft at over 15 locations and is part of the first-in-a-generation Department-Level Exercise series, a new way of conducting operations in a contested, dynamic environment to build capabilities making a stronger, deterrent force. The DLE series encompasses all branches of the Department of Defense, along with Allies and partners, employing more than 400 Joint and coalition aircraft and more than 12,000 members at more than 50 locations across 3,000 miles.
