Aerial refueler said to have reached the fighter jet deep inside Iran in time to fix fuel tank issue; backup plan would have seen it cross into unnamed neighboring country to land
An Israeli fighter jet approaching Tehran during the 12-day war with Iran last month suffered a fuel tank malfunction that almost forced it to stage an emergency landing, Channel 12 reported on Saturday, for the first time.
The pilot of the F-15 fighter jet first noticed an issue with the fuel tank while already deep inside Iran’s borders, the report stated, and alerted the necessary personnel to the problem in real-time.
As no aerial refueling craft had been accompanying the fighter jets on the mission, a plan was devised to dispatch one to resolve the issue, Channel 12 reported.
At the same time, a second plan was drafted in case the refueling craft failed to reach the malfunctioning fighter jet in time. In this instance, the jet was to cross the border and make an emergency landing in a neighboring country, to avoid the risk involved in landing inside the Islamic Republic.
The report did not identify which country was selected for the emergency landing.
