Summary

DescriptionBoeing KC-135 J57 takeoff.JPEG	A U.S. Air Force Boeing KC-135A Stratotanker aircraft taking off. Original caption: "A U.S. Air Force KC-135E Stratotanker aircraft takes off on a mission in support of Operation Desert Storm." Which is obviously wrong. It´s a KC-135 steam jet with J57-engines and water injection, therefore it could be a KC-135A or -Q.
Date	UnknownUnknown (The given date 26 May 1992 is impossible because Operation Desert Storm was over by then).
