Lockheed Martin Unveils KC-Y Tanker Contender
The U.S. Air Force is gearing up to buy another fleet of tankers, which could pitch the A330 MRTT into battle again with the Boeing KC-46.
The Lockheed Martin-led LMXT represents another opportunity to sell the Airbus A330 MRTT to the U.S. Air Force following the ousting of the initially successful, Northrop Grumman-led KC-45A from the KC-X order that resulted in the procurement of the Boeing KC-46A. (Image: Lockheed Martin)
