Boeing's Tardy $44.3 Billion Tanker Nears Milestone After Spat
Boeing Co. and the U.S. Air Force anticipate delivery in October of the first KC-46 aerial refueling tanker, settling a disagreement over timing for the much-delayed $44.3 billion program, according to the service’s No. 2 civilian official. The new schedule is two months earlier than the Air Force had projected. Undersecretary Matthew Donovan called it “aggressive but achievable” in a statement to Bloomberg News.
