This morning we’re tracking a French Air Force C-135FR (c/n 474, callsign FAF4012) in flight over the Strait of Sicily southbound.

The aircraft is departed from Istres AB, southern France, and it has made an aerial refueling mission off western Corsica.

The aircraft is now making another air refueling mission off Tripoli.

Around 14:30 CET the tanker moved to east, but now (15:33 CET) is making a second aerial refueling mission off Tripoli.

After the second aerial refueling, around 16:00 CET, the C-135FR ends the mission and came back to France.
