Thanks "tread"
That all makes complete sense.
Obviously was a KC-10 "twin tanker" as from that height you can't see the third. Just checked the size voyager/KC-10 and the 10 is quite a bit smaller.
As for the jets. With my eyes f35/15 look all the same at that height. Just very unusual to see that type of formation over land, normally in tanking mode when that close.
Mystery solved
