Caption: "An Air Combat COMMAND 55th Wing RC-135W Rivet Joint reconnaissance aircraft from Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska, flies a training mission over Nebraska. The RC-135W works closely with the E-3A Airborne Warning And CONTROL SYSTEM (AWACS) during war or contingency situations, providing direct, near real-time reconnaissance INFORMATION and electronic warfare support to theater COMMANDers and combat forces. All RC-135s are equipped with an aerial refueling SYSTEM, which gives the aircraft unlimited range. Working in the back end of the RC-135, Air Intelligence Agency airmen deploy a lot.
