In a statement ahead of the Air Force Association’s Air Space & Cyber conference that starts today in National Harbor, Maryland, the companies said they agreed to add boom refueling capabilities and modernized communications equipment to the KC-390′s in support Joint All Domain Command and Control, or JADC2, requirements
Which is a bit ambiguous. Does it mean fitting a UARRSI receptacle to the KC-390 to receive fuel, or to fit a boom system to offload fuel? Or both?
