Description
The Osprey SUPERBASE series takes the enthusiast behind the scenes on the world's major airbases. This up-front series features spectacular, exclusive colour photography from aviation's camera sharp-shooters. If you want to get inside the perimeter fence to see today's combat aircraft in their natural habitat, the SUPERBASE series is literally where it's at. Here's what's happening on the Mildenhall ramp today...
DET 4 AND THE SR-71; 10TH ACCS; RC-135S; EUROPEAN TANKER TASK FORCE; BRAVO SQUADRON; HEAVY LIFTERS C-5
Front cover: Those large engine nacelle pods identify Stratotanker Virginia Dare as a re-engined CFM56-powered KC-135R. The US Air Force is currently about half-way through funding the conversion of some 732 J57-powered KC-135A/Qs to KC-135R configuration.
Back cover: Mildenhall's hangars were obviously not designed with the future products of Boeing Military Airplanes in mind—this ACCS EC-135H has to hang its tail out in the breeze
