"The combat-ready KC-46A is transforming the role of the tanker for the 21st century," said James Burgess, Vice President, and KC-46 Program Manager. "We're proud to work side-by-side with the Air Force ensuring the Pegasus provides unmatched capabilities and continues to evolve for the US and its allies' global mission needs."
