likely that redundant A330 airliners could be converted into a 'lite' MRTT configuration for 'price sensitive' customers
Already happening - the extra 2 recently announced for RAAF are to be converted from ex QANTAS A330's.
Whether they are 'lite' I cannot say, but the impression at the announcement was they would be to same standard as first new build RAAF aircraft.
