404 Titan,

The 330 freighter may not be flyig in commercial service, however the design does exist, and my understanding is that a number have been purchased.

The MRTT is flying now, based on the A310 in a combi configuration - mixed passengers and freight - and both the Canadian and German air forces.

These are modified second hand civil aircraft, unlike the 330 MRTT.
