RC-135V/W Avionics/Systems?

[Quandal12]

Despite several searches, I found only one upgrade document on the RC-135V/W Rivet Joint. Due to its lack of popularity, finding useful material on this aircraft has been a challenging task. I would appreciate it if anyone could provide me with any relevant information, photographs, documents, or any other resources on the Rivet Joint.

I assume you have the latest edition of Dr Robert S Hopkins' KC-135 - More Than a Tanker?

I did not! Thank you for bringing this to my attention, I have found a PDF Copy and I'm currently giving it a read. Thank you.

Luck I believe, I did a search and found a PDF Copy, which I believe is up-to-date.

Or you could have... you know... purchased a copy of the book to support an author doing original research

Oh, I see. Well, I'm a Google numpty, so a clue will help me very much.

Do anyone have the illustration of antenna location on RC-135?
