The F-15's that deployed to the Gulf last week were JEST 11 and JEST 21 flight.
Supporting tankers were RCH061 and RCH071 flight to Thailand.
RH.
On 28th April RCH061 Flt tanked JEST11/16 from RODN to VTBU. These were KC-135Rs 62-3562 and 62-3565. The same day RCH071 Flt tanked JEST21/26 from RODN to VTBU. These were KC-135Rs 62-3532 and 63-8021.
On 30 April JEST11/16 and 21/26 flew VTBU-OEPS. The respective tanker cells flew VTBU-VTBU. For JEST21/26 KC-10A 79-1713 RCH073 operated FJDG (corrected) to OMAM. Maybe RCH063 another KC-10A was also operating?.
For the F-15s, so far no tail numbers have been reported from Kadena or elsewhere.
Edit and correction,
I am informed RCH063 was probably KC-10A 83-0081. Both RCH063 and RCH073 should have routed FJDG to OMAM.
729th AS C-17A 04-4138 RCH489 arrived at VTBU on 29 April in support of this and departed VTBU to OMAM on the 02nd May.
