From the left, U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Clayton Hutchinson, 36th Fighter Generation Squadron crew chief, U.S. Army Spc. Marcus Grant, 2nd Infantry Division Sustainment Brigade petroleum supply specialist, and U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Antonio Rios, 51st Logistics Readiness Squadron fuels distribution supervisor, perform a hot-pit refuel on an F-16 Fighting Falcon during a joint training event at Osan Air Base, Republic of Korea, Nov. 29, 2023. Hot-pit refueling aims to efficiently service aircraft while engines are running, minimizing the turnaround time for their return to flight. This practice enables aircraft to swiftly take flight during attacks, ensuring rapid response and presence in the Indo-Pacific region for defense purposes.
