RT by @SpaethFlies: The world’s only KC-747 tanker (Boeing 747-131F 5-8107) was destroyed by an Israeli airstrike at Mehrabad Airport in Tehran on March 7. This 55-year-old legend refueled IRIAF F-4E Phantoms during the daring 1981 Operation H-3 attack on Iraq’s H-3 base. It’s a tough reminder of how conflicts erase unique pieces of aviation history, yet this plane’s story from the Iran-Iraq War will live on forever.
