Summary[edit]

Description
English: A U.S. Navy Boeing F/A-18F-54-MC Lot 23 Super Hornet (BuNo 165801) of Air Test and Evaluation Squadron 23 (VX-23) flies alongside a German Luftwaffe Airbus A400M Atlas (s/n 54+44) from Lufttransportgeschwader 62 (62nd Air Transport Wing) near Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland (USA), 11 January 2024, during an air-to-air refueling test aimed at expanding the flight envelope for the European transport and tanker aircraft. VX-23 is flying to clear the entire envelope for all NATO allies flying Atlas, which will allow it to refuel U.S. Super Hornet, Growler, and Harrier aircraft, ultimately expanding the United States' ability to operate its forces globally.
