U.S. Air Force KC-135 tanker crashes in Iraq, killing four crew members, while supporting operations against Iran. Investigators rule out hostile or friendly fire as causes. The aging fleet is gradually being replaced by newer models, but tankers could see increased use if conflict with Iran escalates. This incident follows a week of aviation setbacks, including friendly fire downing three F-15s.
