According to the U.S. Department of Defense, the Kuwaiti C-17 was visiting Dover AFB as part of a completion of a military sales deal.  Dover AFB is directly involved in $3.5-billion worth of yearly U.S. military sales to other countries.

The information released with the photos does not go into details about the U.S.-Kuwaiti military sales deal.   However in December 2020, the U.S. Department of State announced a $4.2-billion sale of U.S. military equipment to Kuwait, which included AH-64 Apache gunships and parts for Patriot missiles.
