They build an KC46 for around 200 milion dollars including the new stuff. But you already tell Boeings problems. So unfortunally its costs are going up.

Most don't. Fuel is kept in the wings, below deck, or sometimes in the horizontal tail. The cargo decks are reserved for cargo, hence the "C" in KC-135, KC-10, KC-130, KC-46, etc.
It is a wander that those that are still waiting for there A330 MRTT to come in to service still. Could change the the old A330 in to the new A330neo as a MRTT.

Documentation to the customer (including training material) is in the language which the contract with the customer specifies. I don't know what languages are used internally by Airbus, but technical documentation is written, not verbal.
No we have 14 A330 MRTT Voyagers and 1 is as you say the VIP aircraft. 4 are 'surge' aircraft contracted to the RAF but available for civilian charter.
the A330-900 Neo as a MPA with multi role ASW & EWS capability would make it a formidable asset against any adversary!!! the A330-900 Neo LR multi role MPA will have more capabilities than just an in-flight refueling tanker aircraft!!! speaking of capabilities the cargo interior of the A330-900 Neo LR can be fitted with a sizeable but state-of-the-art rotary missile launcher that can be lowered & retracted through a weapons bay door in the floor!!! the rotary missile launcher will be positioned in the middle section of the A330-900 Neo LR vast cargo hold for better weight distribution throughout the aircraft!!! the rotary launcher will be able to accommodate a variety of missiles ranging from Exocet AM39 anti-ship missiles & AGM-88G HARM-ER anti-radiation guided missile to STORM Shadow Advanced LR land attack cruise missiles & Meteor BVR air-to-air missiles (for self defense)!!! even heavy weight air launched torpedoes for that matter!!! all the A330-900 Neo LR needs is a new AESA target acquisition radar in the front nose of the aircraft & a side scan radar with terrain following feature built into either side of the aft lower fuselage section!!! the front half of the A330-900 Neo LR interior will be occupied by 5 work stations (in a tandem configuration, one behind the other) with dedicated technical crew operating the ASW & EWS system!!! yes, the A330-900 Neo will have a robust immediate threat analysis & countermeasure system comprising of radar & missile warning receiver in addition to an abundance of chaff & flare countermeasures that will be fired from a countermeasure dispenser retrofitted to both sides the rear fuselage section!!! needless to say that the A330-900 Neo LR will have mid air refueling capability from a B707-320B in-flight refueling tanker aircraft or the A330-900 Neo MMRT through an extendable drogue in the front starboard side forward of the cockpit instead of the A330-900 Neo MMRT rear under fuselage backward extending fixed drogue!!! to cope with the additional weight the A330-900 Neo LR MPA might require reinforced longer (taller) front & rear wheeled landing gear!!!

mmouseav8r Eurotrash !? Well good on you if you think that Boeing is so much better while the “Pegasus” tanker still is not yet flying operationally and is a subside/money well ! 😂😂😂 That is also without considering the problems with the Max, or the 777X and the engines issues on the 787 (Norwegian actually filed a law suit for wrong doing) or the F-35 VTOL with the operation cost per hour to operate being sky high, any version of the F-35 in fact...the last good plane was the super hornet to me the others were too expansive to develop...buy and maintain and no one wants this ! 😂😂😂 Without China there would be no Apple because rare earth minerals needed in iPhones and many other things only China can process them at the volume requested...so many other things you think are good but we actually won’t buy and that includes your high fuel consumptions cars, even if maybe some Harleys are bought but they are soon to be manufactured in Europe to avoid the taxes on steel to make them in the US and the retaliation from Europe if exported there. At the end we are very happy without Boeing ! 😉
Needs other apparat / aircraft other engine and generators where working on the principle of the space-time phenomena. Did we find what inside the substructures? Will be more efficient.
They are..... those are brand new A330-200's. Airbus doesn't manufacture a tanker in house like Boeing does. The brand new "commercial" aircraft is delivered to the conversion center, and they build a refueling tanker out of it.
Its really shameful what Boeing did to you guys on Airbus air tanker deal got walked back after we lost the contract. It is such a move of cowardicevand greed by Boeing. I wouldn't mind having variety in our USAF with quality aircraft from Airbus from a steadfast ally. Boeing is afraid of competition and they're lazy. And you're hearing this come from a Boeing employee.
Even if they were not delivered on time it is still better for the delivery and actually compared to the Boeing similar project “Pegasus” that is facing problems after problems...to me doesn’t matter as it is yet the best solution the KC-35 even with the CFM-56 are really thirsty ! 😉
Skytrotter .. agree that the MRTT is awesome. The USAF and US government made a big mistake changing their tender decision from Airbus to Boeing for their tanker replacement project. I just wanted to highlight that the claim of on time delivery of all MRTTs to customers was on time was not entirely true, due to development and delivery delays for the RAAF’s aircraft. On time delivery may now be the case.
Well all 14 of the RAF's MRTTs were delivered on time and all in place by 2016. Ordered about the same time as the KC-46 was gifted the USAF contract. I think the first 3 Aussie ones were a year late but the other 4 were delivered OK.

Doge Bomber that is one thing and a snag you can find in any airplane, SBs are there to correct it but what to say regarding the issues with the KC46 still trying to be operational and a financial well, the Max grounded for a year and a half and counting or the F-35 VTOL and or the cost per hour on all versions of it...hhhmmmm how about the 777X or the issues with the engines in the 787 Norwegian is suing Boeing for that it’s been published lately... Wanna add something !? 😉😂
about these highly skilled employees English skills... In Germany - for obvious reasons - we are driven to be part of a "rat-race" of who gets to have the most authentic (or imagined) english/US accent. Theres reasons to why other countries are still resting much more within their own native culture. As a general rule I'd say the Spanish would love to speak better English but were in the past lacking the educational framework (chicken/hen dilemma) but will be getting there (thanks to the abundance of EN streaming content these days). The French could be much better but are sticking to the most horrible accents for whatever reasons (linguistic pride, general pissed-off-ness?!). Then you got the smaller nations of Northern Europe and the Dutch who've since the beginning of TV had original EN content and are therefore at a natural advantage (same has been true with Romania where I've enountered much better EN skills even in small towns compared to the Czech Republic...). Finally lets take some time to reflect on the inherent privilege native EN speakers bring to the table and are mostly oblivious to.I am fully immersed in EN in my life and am ok with that. I'm also not predicting or advocating for China to develope any kind of soft power/cultural admiration of the likes the UK and US has gotten in the time since WWII. I DO feel like we're at a weird "shit-our-parents-aren't-gods:/" type moment though with Brexit and the US unravelling politically and societally infront of our eyes.
You fail to take into account language similarity. Spaniards are insanely good at speaking french for instance (for those who do). French doesn't have a tonic accent so it makes it hard for us to understand that concept in other languages, Dutch and English sound alike, etc...
You forget that spanish is one of the most widely spoken language together with chinese and english.(more then 550million speaker) Spanish is a IATA oficial language. There is less reason for spanish people to learn english then in other countries like Germany.
NINE MONTHS!? FOR A COVERSION!? It takes a couple of weeks to BUILD that airpane. Why would conversion take so long!? Move this line to a country without siesta!
MRTT is an unusual conversion process. There have to be additional, new structural elements added to the A330 airframe which don't normally exist on a civilian A330 and there's also the issue of putting in addition wiring and hydraulic lines, complete with redundancies, which might involve complete rewiring of certain areas of the aircraft. Let's not forget that these aircraft are also being converted from civilian airliners to military transports/tankers and as such need new systems installed, such as an IFF, different transponders, military radio systems, and depending on the order, possible EMP shielding (effectively installing Faraday Cages around vital equipment). An A330 airliner isn't meant to be able to survive being under fire in a theatre of war. An A330 MRTT does, and as such it's a lengthy and complicated process. Some components even get completely replaced with military spec components. Remember, these A330s aren't going to be airliners looking to make routes profitable, they're going to be military aircraft with a focus on being able to successfully complete sorties close to, or maybe even within a Theatre of War.
@@vaska00762 I understand all that. Btw, refuelling tankers are NOT intended to survive direct enemy fire, they simply won't. However, I still don't get the nine-months lead time. It's ridiculous. Even if you have to disassemble and then re-assemble the entire aircraft, it's just too long. Yes, a lot of work has to be done, but they are not designing it, they are bolting on existing components.

In a range from 1 (bad) to 10 (very good) I rate a zero.

Creo que deberían mejorar algunos su inglés y su pronunciación 😅
Están demasiado ocupados fabricando el mejor avión del mundo.

A330 MRTT is great but what if there was. A350 MRTT
Too much composite.
La verdad que el inglés es bastante pésimo para los puestos de trabajo y cargos que tienen.
Pero dónde se ha sacado el inglés esta gente!?? Qué horroroso, por Dios 🤦
Airbus is more dedicated to building good aircrafts more so than Boeing.
@@77l96 But Airbus can correct that😉, that shouldn't be a problem
Doge Bomber hello mate, nice to see you here. :D
So good their a380's are being retired 10-15yrs after first flight.
The A320neo also had a huge problem.
Doge Bomber that is one thing and a snag you can find in any airplane, SBs are there to correct it but what to say regarding the issues with the KC46 still trying to be operational and a financial well, the Max grounded for a year and a half and counting or the F-35 VTOL and or the cost per hour on all versions of it...hhhmmmm how about the 777X or the issues with the engines in the 787 Norwegian is suing Boeing for that it’s been published lately...
Wanna add something !? 😉😂
As the Acceptance Manager for the MMF fleet I wish they did take FOD as serious as they say.
about these highly skilled employees English skills...
In Germany - for obvious reasons - we are driven to be part of a "rat-race" of who gets to have the most authentic (or imagined) english/US accent. Theres reasons to why other countries are still resting much more within their own native culture.
As a general rule I'd say the Spanish would love to speak better English but were in the past lacking the educational framework (chicken/hen dilemma) but will be getting there (thanks to the abundance of EN streaming content these days).
The French could be much better but are sticking to the most horrible accents for whatever reasons (linguistic pride, general pissed-off-ness?!).
Then you got the smaller nations of Northern Europe and the Dutch who've since the beginning of TV had original EN content and are therefore at a natural advantage (same has been true with Romania where I've enountered much better EN skills even in small towns compared to the Czech Republic...).
Finally lets take some time to reflect on the inherent privilege native EN speakers bring to the table and are mostly oblivious to.I am fully immersed in EN in my life and am ok with that. I'm also not predicting or advocating for China to develope any kind of soft power/cultural admiration of the likes the UK and US has gotten in the time since WWII. I DO feel like we're at a weird "shit-our-parents-aren't-gods:/" type moment though with Brexit and the US unravelling politically and societally infront of our eyes.
You fail to take into account language similarity. Spaniards are insanely good at speaking french for instance (for those who do). French doesn't have a tonic accent so it makes it hard for us to understand that concept in other languages, Dutch and English sound alike, etc...
You forget that spanish is one of the most widely spoken language together with chinese and english.(more then 550million speaker) Spanish is a IATA oficial language. There is less reason for spanish people to learn english then in other countries like Germany.

...are shitboxes
Its amazing that you can get a such high ranking job and hardly speak no english
give it some time (and Netflix...)
Why? Its Spain ffs ....
In the UK or USA, that would be a reasonable observation. This is not in either of those countries.
Get rekt boeing airbus best!
ole España cojone
NINE MONTHS!? FOR A COVERSION!? It takes a couple of weeks to BUILD that airpane. Why would conversion take so long!? Move this line to a country without siesta!
MRTT is an unusual conversion process. There have to be additional, new structural elements added to the A330 airframe which don't normally exist on a civilian A330 and there's also the issue of putting in addition wiring and hydraulic lines, complete with redundancies, which might involve complete rewiring of certain areas of the aircraft.
Let's not forget that these aircraft are also being converted from civilian airliners to military transports/tankers and as such need new systems installed, such as an IFF, different transponders, military radio systems, and depending on the order, possible EMP shielding (effectively installing Faraday Cages around vital equipment).
An A330 airliner isn't meant to be able to survive being under fire in a theatre of war. An A330 MRTT does, and as such it's a lengthy and complicated process. Some components even get completely replaced with military spec components. Remember, these A330s aren't going to be airliners looking to make routes profitable, they're going to be military aircraft with a focus on being able to successfully complete sorties close to, or maybe even within a Theatre of War.
Idiot
Ignorant.
@@vaska00762 I understand all that. Btw, refuelling tankers are NOT intended to survive direct enemy fire, they simply won't. However, I still don't get the nine-months lead time. It's ridiculous. Even if you have to disassemble and then re-assemble the entire aircraft, it's just too long. Yes, a lot of work has to be done, but they are not designing it, they are bolting on existing components.

Well at least this 'turd' works and is delivered on time.

Will not last long, too many chinese parts
Oh right so you have seen and checked the parts list on these?
No didn't think so ...
But they don’t mention that the refuelling pods are British.
Typical of Europe.
Get out and produce your own 100% british plane.
So? It’s not as if the pods are super hard to design
@@lsanz8742the wings and engines are also British
