HISTORY ASPECTS:
The USAF KC-135R with tail number 58-0098 has a storied history that spans several decades of vital service to the United States Air Force. Entering service in the late 1950s, this aircraft quickly became an integral part of the USAF’s fleet, serving as a mid-air refueling tanker. Its primary mission was to extend the operational range of various aircraft, ensuring that they could reach their destinations or complete their missions without the need to land and refuel.
Throughout its long and distinguished career, 58-0098 participated in numerous conflicts and operations. One of its notable deployments was during the Vietnam War, where it played a crucial role in refueling tactical and strategic bombers, reconnaissance aircraft, and fighter jets. This allowed American forces to maintain air superiority and execute missions deep within enemy territory. The KC-135R’s adaptability and reliability made it a workhorse during this challenging conflict.
In more recent years, 58-0098 continued to serve in various theaters of operation, including the Middle East, supporting operations such as Desert Storm and the Global War on Terror. Its ability to provide rapid and extended aerial refueling capabilities to fighter and bomber aircraft made it an indispensable asset.
Now, aviation enthusiasts and history buffs have the opportunity to own a meticulously crafted 1:200 scale model of this iconic aircraft, commemorating its vital role in American military history. This model is a tribute to the KC-135R’s enduring legacy and the dedicated crews who operated and maintained it. Display it proudly to honor this aircraft’s service and its contribution to the defense of the United States.
