A U.S. Air Force KC-46 tanker suffered damage to its boom while refueling F-22 Raptors off the coast of Virginia on July 8, Air & Space Forces Magazine has confirmed, with reported radio communication from the crew indicating the boom “detached.”
The Air Force released accident investigation board reports into two CV-22 Osprey mishaps that took place in the span of five days last summer, both involving aircraft and crew from the 20th Special Operations Squadron at Cannon Air Force Base, N.M. 
The pilot, maintainers, and an air traffic controller at Kingsley Field, Ore., all made mistakes that contributed to an F-15 careening off the runway and into an irrigation canal in May 2023, destroying the $35 million fighter.
