KC135R does have the receptacle (see below).
Buddy-buddy refuelling to sustain operations has been a thing for decades, including tanker to tanker.

And I have to get the New Old with the Old Old, sort of where it started and where it is, the KC-135A and the KC-135R.

RT @BloodyPolitics: Two 🇺🇸 USAF KC135R Stratotankers from France landed in heavy sidewinds earlier, positioning for their next mission. The short runway is proving very useful as a parking lot. (1/2)

They're really sortieing the tankers tonight. Steady stream of -135Rs our of Tinker using OKIE callsigns, and now Illinois' 126 ARW joining the action. Michigan's 171 ARS is about to land in Bangor.
