RC PLANE COCKPIT INSTALL
Boeing received a $248m order from the USAF between 19 to build and install re-engine kits for 11 KC-135 and 11 RC-135 aircraft. It was also upgraded with a cockpit inertial navigational system as per the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards. The aircraft was overhauled with significant changes to the airframe and engines in 2005. The ACC fleet is controlled by 55th Wing based at Offutt Air Force Base.

The aircraft became fully operational in February 2018. Deliveries began in November 2013 and completed in June 2017. On 19 March 2010, the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) procured three RC-135W Rivet Joint reconnaissance aircraft along with the associated ground systems to execute signal intelligence missions for the RAF. The range and service ceiling of RC-135W is 6,500km and 39,000ft, respectively.
The maximum airspeed of the aircraft is 870km/h. The RC-135V/W Rivet Joint, also called Airseeker, is an advance version fitted with a sensor suite for tracking and identifying geo-locate signals within the electromagnetic spectrum. The RC-135U Combat Sent gathers ELINT data for use in the manufacture of advanced radar warning receivers, jammers, decoys, anti-radiation missiles and training simulators. The RC-135T trainer was built by removing the signal intelligence gear, refuelling boom and trapeze from the Rivet Dandy.
