Interesting footage of Air-to-Air Refueling of a B-2 from a KC-135.

As already explained, +20-hour missions, routinely flown by B-2 stealth bombers from Whiteman Air Force Base or RAF Fairford in UK (during an unusual overseas deployment), require several aerial refuelings.

Here’s how refueling a Spirit stealth bomber looks like from the KC-135 boomer’s point of view.

The video was filmed on Jun. 14 from a KC-135 of the 100th ARW (Air Refueling Wing) from RAF Mildenhall, over Corwall, England.
