I’ve seen several videos of probe & drogue re-fueling accidents, but never an incident involving a re-fueling boom.

Navy use to have them all the time especially with the old A-6, which in most caes the boom was throw away anyway. The plane crew would replace one of these probes overnight and have the A-6 back up in a day or two same thing with the A-4 too.
