A Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle prepares to receive fuel from a KC-135 Stratotanker May 3, 2017. Each of the low-drag conformal fuel tanks that hug the F-15E's fuselage can carry 750 gallons of fuel. The tanks hold weapons on short pylons rather than conventional weapon racks, reducing drag and further extending the range of the Strike Eagle.
