Boeing took a $827 million hit as cost overruns continue for the
KC-46 tanker program, the company announced Wednesday.

About $551 million of the pre-tax charge was caused by new expenses
associated with designing and integrating a new Remote Vision System
for the tanker as part of an April agreement with the Air Force.

  • Another Boeing Boondoggle

The KC-46 tanker program has been a bewildering boondoggle.
Now the Air Force says it will be years before it is fully operational
As a host of critical design deficiencies continue to plague the program.

Testing showed that some of these issues can have adverse impacts on the
aircraft being refueled from the KC-46.
These include battering the receiving aircraft itself and sc-aping its skin with
the boom.
Although we don't know when the video below was shot or the exact situation
surrounding beyond that the aircraft shown is a test F-15E, it depicts a tense
incident in which a KC-46 boom appears to slip off the Strike Eagle's refueling
receptacle, with its control surfaces nearly banging into the fighter's canopy.
