SINGAPORE: The Republic of Singapore Air Force's (RSAF) KC-135 tanker aircraft was deployed to the Gulf on Wednesday.

The 36-man KC-135 detachment is Singapore's latest contribution in support of the multinational reconstruction efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

During its three-month deployment, the KC-135 tanker aircraft will conduct air-to-air refuelling missions in support of the coalition forces.

Since 2003, the SAF has made four deployments of KC-135 tanker aircraft, four deployments of Landing Ships, Tank and one deployment of a C-130 transport aircraft to the Gulf. - CNA/ir
