    As for the USAF not exporting boom technology, that is utter nonsence. Spain (KC-97), Israel (KC-97, B707), Iran (B707, B747), the Netherlands (KDC-10), Australia (B707 and soon A330), France, Turkey, Singapore (all KC-135) all have boom-equipped tankers.

    The RAAF 707’s are not equipped with the boom, and all F-111 AAR training is done (for the time being) via USAF KC-135’s.

    Does anyone know what happened to the agm-142 intergration with the F-111? I know they had some problems intergrating the missile on the aircraft, but i’m pretty sure those problems have been overcome. Yet the missile seems to have dissapeared from sight!:(

    While on the subject, is it just me or has the Simpsons really gone downhill of late? They seem to be going for a different sort of audience. A lot less sarcasm, and over the top.

    PLAWOLF, are you sure you’re not being misled by the air data boom on the right wingtip?

    Great to see an ex-RAAF mirage still going strong!
