Aerial refueling is a very central capability of all air forces that must be mastered and available. Without aerial refueling, it is virtually impossible to carry out any significant air operations. This became clear in the early days of aviation and the first experiments began shortly after the First World War. Since then, the technology has continued to develop and drones are now being used as tankers. But supplying an aircraft with fuel in flight is not an easy undertaking - even today. The book highlights the history, aircraft and technology of this important aviation topic.
