The RAF is sending a Voyager tanker to Saudi Arabia to support defensive missions against Houthi missile and drone attacks, keeping allied fighter aircraft airborne for longer.

The RAF is deploying a Voyager aerial refueling tanker to Saudi Arabia as the kingdom faces renewed missile and drone attacks from the Houthis in Yemen. Operating from Cyprus, the tanker will support defensive missions by refueling aircraft in the air, helping fighters remain on station for longer. The deployment adds to Britain’s existing military support for Saudi air defense, including the Sky Sabre system.
