The United States Air Force currently relies principally on boom-and- receptacle technology to conduct aerial-refueling operations for fixed-wing aircraft. With this approach, a single aircraft at a time may be refueled behind a tanker. An alternative concept, called multipoint aerial refueling, uses probe-and-drogue technology to enable more than one fighter aircraft to aerially refuel simultaneously from a tanker. Advocates of a transition to multipoint aerial refueling describe multipoint's benefits as follows: greater flexibility and interoperability of U.S. forces, and the possibility of budgetary savings resulting from the smaller tanker inventory that could be required. Several studies in recent years have addressed the efficacy of multipoint aerial refueling for fighter-employment operations. Not surprisingly, since each study used different analytic approaches and assumptions, the results of the studies have varied. I reviewed five of these studies to understand the reasons for the differences among them and to determine whether any general conclusions could be drawn about the desirability of equipping U.S. tanker aircraft with the multipoint aerial-refueling capability.

This document is a guideline for the design and operation of Aviation Aircraft Refueling Vehicles and for the materials, components, and systems used thereon. The criteria set forth herein are the minimum recommendations for all types of aircraft refueling vehicles, including tanker vehicles, hydrant service vehicles, towable hydrant carts, fixed refueling cabinets, and any other type of aircraft refueling vehicles used at airports for aircraft refueling operations with nominal operating fuel pressures and flow rates as specified within this document. This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) has been updated to include changes in the industry that have occurred since the original document was released and to also provide reference, information, and minimum design and operating criteria for all aircraft refueling vehicles, including tankers, hydrant service vehicles, towable hydrant service carts, refueling cabinets, and any other type of aircraft refueling vehicles and equipment used at airports for aircraft refueling operations.
