luft Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 (edited) The 707 revolutionized the world of air transport when it was commissioned in 1958, due to its speed, range, high capacity and economy of use. Boeing developed parallel version for civilian airline market (slightly larger) and a version of transport and refueling for US Air Force (C-135 and KC-135). Have built different civilian versions, most of those who survive have turned into freighters. Many air forces have acquired this new aircraft or converted for transportation, refueling and electronic warfare. The most prominent military variants are the E-3 Sentry (AWACS -System Aerotransportado- Warning and Control), which carries a large rotating radome on the fuselage, the E-6 Mercury and E-8 J-Stars. For the Spanish Air Force acquisition of these aircraft arises from the need to replace the DC-8 fitted in the 401 Squadron and at the same time complement the operational needs refueling of F-18 and F-1 aircraft thanks the two "pods Sargent Fletcher" to enable them to serve as a cistern for these aircraft system "hose and drogue" in the two wing stations. Its versatility, greater than that of their predecessors, allowing them, in addition to fulfill transport missions personalities and refueling, the station air-air, Tactical Command Control and Communications.

joey45 Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 Very nice. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

luft Posted February 10, 2016 Author Posted February 10, 2016 Thx! Can you make an update with different tactical numbers for these B-707s? T.17-1 Used in the transport of personalities, similar to the US Air Force One. When I go into service the new Airbus A310 (T.22), this plane was only personnel carriers and of course tanking. Anecdotally I can say that flew in when my unit was deployed in Alaska for a Red Flag. For the creators of missions can be a good target to defend, for example. T.17-2 Exclusively used for transporting personnel and refueling T.17-3 Donwload link at the first post Best regards, and sorry for my english, help me with google trans :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
