JSTARS are crazy planes too. They're a Boeing 707 airframe like the KC-135. I've worked on them a little when I was in Qatar in 2005, which is where he'll be going as well. If I'm not mistaken, the JSTARS are stationed at Robins AFB, GA and Hanscom AFB, MASS.
That's all I know pretty much. I wasn't allowed inside the plane. All the work I did on them was on the outside. I know that they still have the old engines, not the once that the RC-135 and KC-135R have. They do electronic warfare type stuff. But I don't know any specifics on them. They're a "secret squirrel" plane.
