Tanker operations in a composite wing concept offer several advantages centered on enhanced combat capability. However, several problems exist concerning tanker operations in composite wings. The most serious problems concern tanker operations as a national asset and tanker personnel problems associated with placing tanker crewmembers in a fighter wing. These problems can be solved by giving operational control of all tankers to the Military Aircraft Command (MAC) and assigning all tanker crewmembers to MAC.
