Hot Pit Refueling is essentially combat refueling and rearming of an aircraft for a quick turnaround. The engines are not fully shut down so that ground crews can quickly prep the aircraft to go back up. In combat conditions, this would mean that POL and MUNS teams would join the crew chiefs at a selected location near the runway to complete this task. The aircraft is checked for any mechanical issues and if it has minor combat damage it is repaired quickly (duct tape, replacement panel, chewing gum) and the aircraft returns to the skies.
