Expediting Israeli Aerial Refueling: KC-46 Training and Rotational Deployment.
This Act aims to strengthen military cooperation with Israel by accelerating the training of Israeli pilots and crews on the operation of US KC-46 refueling aircraft. It mandates the provision of training resources and the inclusion of Israeli personnel in the US military exchange program. Furthermore, the law requires the rotational deployment of US KC-46 aircraft to Israel, directly impacting the ally's defense capabilities and potentially involving federal budget expenditures for military operations.
Key points
Training for Israel: The Secretary of the Air Force must provide resources and conduct training within 60 days for Israeli personnel (pilots, crews, ground staff) on operating the KC-46 aircraft.
Military Personnel Exchange: Israeli air force members involved in KC-46 operations will be authorized to participate in the United States Air Force Military Personnel Exchange Program.
Rotational Deployment: The US will rotationally deploy KC-46 aircraft to Israel for a period of at least 270 days annually, until Israel commissions four of its own KC-46 aircraft or for a maximum of five years.
Duration: The training provisions of this section will cease to have effect ten years after the date of enactment.
