Refuelling Heights and Speeds. The AAR height band is 500 ft AGL/AMSL to 35,000 ft. The speed range is 220 to 325 KIAS.
Maximum Transferable Fuel. Transferable fuel is dependent on sortie duration. Approximately 25,000 kg (55,000 lb) of fuel is available for AAR transfer during a 4 hr flight, assuming an average fuel consumption rate of 7000 kg/hr (16,300 lb/hr), including diversion reserves.
Fuel Transfer Rate. Transfer rates of wing mounted pods is 1500 kg/min (3300 lb/min) and the fuselage mounted reel system is 900 kg/min (1980 lb/min).
Regulated Fuel Pressure. The fuel pressure at the drogue is regulated not to exceed 3.5 bars (50 ± 5 psi).
