Boeing to revise schedule for KC-46

Bloomberg is reporting that Boeing will submit a revised schedule for developing the KC-46 tanker to the Pentagon.

The Pentagon’s Defense Contract Management Agency had already warned in August that the new schedule is likely to affect major milestones in the program.

So far, the maiden flight of the first prototype has slipped to November from June. A fully equipped tanker is not expected to fly until April next year.
