Which AMD team is responsible for air refueling control?

• A. Airlift Control Team (ALCT)
• B. Air Refueling Control Team (ARCT)
• C. Aeromedical Evacuation Control Team (AECT)
• D. Air Mobility Control Team (AMCT)

Answer: (B)

Air refueling control is about coordinating in-flight refueling operations—planning the tanker and receiver tracks, rendezvous points, speeds, altitudes, and monitoring the fueling to keep missions on schedule and safe. The team dedicated to this task handles tanker tasking, real-time control, and airspace deconfliction for refueling, ensuring both tanker crews and receivers stay synchronized and informed. Other mobility teams focus on different functions: moving personnel and cargo by air, evacuating patients, or managing overall air mobility operations. Because of its specialized role in planning, coordinating, and executing air-to-air refueling, the Air Refueling Control Team is the correct team.
