Foreign Military Interest Up for KC-46A Tanker: Report
Boeing expects to announce a new international buyer for the KC-46A Pegasus tanker by the end of the year as interest in using the air-to-air refueler is growing among foreign militaries, according to a Boeing program official.
“There’s several countries that have always been lukewarm, that have now said, ‘Hey, what does your line look like?’” Mike Hafer, Boeing’s senior manager for KC-46 business development, said during a recent press event, Breaking Defense reported.
Six international militaries have approached Boeing about purchasing the aircraft since 2020, with some interested in buying a cargo version without the refueling boom, Hafer told reporters.
