Boeing confident of solving tanker boom fuel flow requirement
Dennis Muilenburg, chief executive officer of Boeing Integrated Defense Systems, said his company is confident of meeting a Pentagon requirement for the refueling boom of the KC-X.

The refueling boom developed by Boeing for the JASDF couldn't meet the 1,200 gallon-per-minute (GMP) offload rate required by the USAF but Muilenburg says the company "have come up with a way to meet the requirement."
