However, in March the Air Force shifted course on its future tanker modernization effort. Top leaders announced plans to speed up the acquisition of its most advanced future tanker, which was redubbed NGAS, to the mid- to late-2030s, and to cut in half the number of interim tankers it would buy.
Is that an acroymn for No Gas? Judging by the 767 fiasco it might well end up that way, they will still be arguing in the courts by the mid 2030's
