They have 6 or 7 KC-135's, and they can use ours as well.

Take a good look at that Sufa. Notice anything missing? Like the Israeli national insignia on the wings?

Ok, that picture looks like it was taken in Winter somewhere over the Central US, so it's probably a predelivery Sufa on a test flight (predelivery aircraft for foreign export often don't wear their nation's insignia until they make it to their buyer's territory. The Polish F-16s flew out with US insignia and the Polish insignia wasn't unblocked until after the ferry flight). It reminds me of the IMAX "Red Flag" movie (supposedly a documentary, but really a comedy) where they talk about all the nations at Red Flag, listing the nations as they show aircraft from those nation's Air Forces. The narrator gets through six or seven countries and says "and other nations as well" just as a Barak taxis by.
