Since the proposed Agile tanker would have a boom refueling receptor, it could be the solution to moving fuel forward as well, though in the case of fuel being that scarce it probably would not be efficient to actually use it as an airborne tanker. It could offload the cargo on the ground though after meeting up with a full sized sized tanker from further back; that would be a faster way of flying in fuel than any other mechanism I can think of.
