    Fill ‘er up? Contact! Check out the mission flexibility of this #Boeing-#USAF KC-46. First it refuels an F/A-18 on the centerline drogue system! The tanker also refueled an #F16 on its boom during this certification test flight. Game-changing #KC46 on its way! #TankerTuesdaypic.twitter.com/ZxnyuaAQjN

        How many lbs/Kg of fuel can a KC-46 carry as a Tanker?

        MRRT has been doing that for ages. Old - overweight - lacking functionality - but hey it's American!

        Game changing in mission flexibility: KC-135 had to be reconfigured between Navy and Air Force missions; KC10 fueled Navy from WARP pods on the wings...KC46 can handle both from centerline during same mission. More reliably.

        Being an old KC 135 driver that looks like a great way to refuel, ihear it holds double the payload as my 135 does

        And Airbus was ready to deliver, IMMEDIATELY, after winning the bid... But, hey, Boeing conveniently moved some of it's headquarters to Chicago, and made some tactical political contributions... #theChicagoWay

        yeah...10 yrs late... billion$ over-budget... for a platform that has less capacity than the Airbus bid that ACTUALLY won the contract before @BarackObama injected himself... But, hey, "merica, right?

        Now if we can get Boeing to fire up the updated version of the 757-800 and the 757-900 MAX. We could have narrow and widebody passenger jets, and narrow and widebody freighters, and even a few of the 757 for narrowbody refuelers. ( MORE )

        ^^^^^ this!! Stop putting lipstick on a pig (737max) and reengineer the 757 (best model to date!)
