Naval Air was used in Afghanistan operating from carriers at sea. They used Air Force refuellers to do the job as I recall.
Didn't the RAF VC-10's and Tristars refuel a lot of USN sorties over Afghanistan flying out of Oman?
Think i've seen a few pics of F/A-18s refuelling from our hoses over there.
