Thumbs up

Boeing has just announced that the Italian Air Force has become the launch customer for the Boeing 767 Tanker Transport, 4 are being acquired with an option for 2 more. Boeing are now looking towards the RAF as the follow-on customer.

And all for the same cost as the stupid 'dome'! Germany and now Italy can afford proper tankers; DPA is still expecting the RAF to have to make do with mercenaries.
