The Air Force and Boeing haven’t yet fixed the troubled KC-46 Pegasus vision system
Endlessly spending time and money on what was a bad idea to begin with (using 2D imaging do what 3D vision is needed for). Put a boom operator station back in the tail like we've had in the KC-135 for 60 years. Otherwise make it all automatic, based on a LIDAR solution.
