Northrop Grumman shows why KC-45 is the right tanker.
Northrop Grumman’s KC-45 Tanker is the right answer for the U.S. Air Force’s modernization of its aerial refueling fleet.
This capable aircraft is based on the highly successful A330 airliner, and is a derivative of the tanker/transport aircraft already selected for service in the air forces of Australia, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia. The KC-45 provides a total air mobility solution – with exceptional capacity for in-flight refueling, plus full flexibility in cargo delivery, passenger transport, aeromedical evacuation, and other missions.
