USA And the winner is KC-45A -> KC-46A

Da vant Airbus sammen med Northrop Grumman kontakten for 179 KC-45A i KC-X-konkurransen for US Air Force. Dette må være et svinde nederlag for Boeing og vel også kroken på døra for 767 i 2011.

Men interessant nok sier artikkelen hos Flight International følgende:

Quote:
Boeing has a right to appeal the USAF decision. A protest can be filed with the US Government Accountability Office (GAO) within 10 days after the USAF debriefs the Boeing team about the reasons for its decision. GAO is committed to issuing a judgment on the protest within 100 days.
Da får vi kanskje smøre oss med tålmodighet enda 110 dager, før endelig Airbus kan starte med å bygge A330-200ene - de 20 første i Europa og resterende ved fabrikken i Mobile, AL.

Her er hele artikkelen: http://www.flightglobal.com/articles...-contract.html
