A new Chinese military aerial refueling aircraft that is converted from the H-6K bomber is seen on Yanliang airbase in Xi’an on Google Earth’s latest image updates of the site. Under-wing aerial refueling pods can be seen near the wingtips which differentiate this aircraft from the bomber version.China has been shifting to a H-6K fleet as the new bomber uses fuel-efficient D-30KP turbofan engines and Chinese aerospace engineers have also redesigned the flight deck.
