Expediting Israeli Aerial Refueling Act of 2023
This bill requires the U.S. Air Force to train Israeli pilots and ground crews on operating KC-46 refueling aircraft within 60 days of enactment, including participation in the U.S. Air Force Military Personnel Exchange Program. It mandates a report to Congress on deploying U.S. KC-46 aircraft to Israel on a rotational basis, with aircraft remaining in Israel for at least 270 days annually until either Israel commissions its own KC-46s or five years pass. The training and deployment provisions expire after ten years. The bill directly affects the U.S. Air Force (as implementer), the Israeli Air Force (as trainee), and Congress (as recipient of reports).
