The Boeing KC-97L Stratofreighter, a variant of the KC-97 Stratofreighter, served as a mid-air refueling aircraft for the United States Air Force during the Cold War era. Introduced in the early 1950s, it featured upgraded avionics and a flying boom for more efficient refueling. With a cargo capacity, it also performed transport missions. The KC-97L played a vital role in extending the range and endurance of strategic bombers. As newer tanker aircraft emerged, the KC-97L was gradually phased out, with its last active-duty service in the 1970s, marking the end of an era in aerial refueling history.
