"Refuel Any Aircraft On Any Mission"
This video discusses the advantages of the Boeing KC-767 Advanced Tanker in the upcoming decision on the bid to provide the United States Air Force with new aircraft to replace its aging fleet of mid-air refueling tankers.
Argues that the airplane offers a variety of uses to US Armed Forces, from refueling, to passenger or troop transport, to cargo transport, to serving the needs of aeromedical teams. Beneficial to the country, as it is reliant upon 44,000 jobs in America and 300 American suppliers to build the craft, including Pratt & Whitney, Smiths and Vought. Is the right size aircraft for the job. Has decades of experience in airborne refueling, and uses a sixth generation boom to refuel.
