With airplane tires, it is common to always use a new tube.
There can be small wrinkles in the tube against the tire that will eventually be a weak spot, that cannot be detected visually.

Remounting the same tube in a new tire will put this weakened area in a different position/configuration, and can lead to a failure.

The chances of an early failure may not be great, but they are far from zero.
