Identity of Maine ANG KC-135E on 9-11


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know the identity of this Maine ANG KC-135E in the photo below?  Zoom yields me nothing.  Photo was allegedly taken on 9-11 over NYC, but looks like it may be photo shopped because of the sun angle and the fact that there is no smoke rising from the world trade center site..

I don't think it's photo shopped...but it wasn't taken ON 9/11. I believe it was taken a while after 9/11 as a publicity shot promoting the ANG. The aircraft represent all the ANG birds that were launched on 9/11 (MA ANG F-15s, VA ANG F-16s, ME ANG KC-135.).
