Tanker from 126th ARS, Wisconsin ANG flying over Lake Michigan during the 2024 WaterStone Bank Air & Water Show at Milwaukee. The 'R' designation started in the 1980s as KC-135A and KC-135E engines were replaced with 98 kN CFM-56-2B1 turbofans. These aircraft are still going strong after 60 years and are likely to continue in service for some time.
