"Surely the obvious solution (and therefore the one that will not be adopted) is to convert three of the Voyager orders to MRTTs. The later Voyagers have not been built yet or even started so the change should not be a problem for Airbus."

They are under a PFI contract, any changes would surely just allow Airtanker to squeeze the MoD for a nice tidy sum?
