Found these shots of the SP birds getting back home. Its nice to see the single, large refueling tank on centerline. Guess they gave up the double set of those big ones while on transit flights? Earlier it was not unlikely to see them with double tanks under fuselage.

The number of tanks is determined by several factors, including tanker availability, weather, route of flight and divert base status. The aircraft must always have sufficient fuel to reach a divert base from anywhere on the route of flight.
