“Delivered late Due to Japan wanting FAA certification.
And how far behind is the A330MRTT.”

FAA certification was only a small part of it. The biggest part was DEVELOPMENT ISSUES.

The A330MRTT (KC-45) is closer than the proposed KC-767AT since the plane is already flying meaning it already has an airworthiness certificate because it’s based on the already existing and certified A330-200F.

“Flown to Germany to get fitted for CARGO conversion that the KC-767 already has.”

The KC-767 has to be flown to Kansas for conversion.

“Just like the KC-767 for Japan and Italy They have Flown and are delivered. which the KC-767AT is derived from.”

The KC-767AT is a totally different jet than the basic KC-767.

The KC-767AT is based on the equally non existant 767-200ERF that will use the -400 wing and cockpit cobbled together with the -200 fuselage.

Here is what Boeing’s own tanker program spokesman said just last year:

“We’ve described the platform as a 767-200LR freighter. It will be a derivative of that and it is a freighter that doesn’t exist yet. I would hope this leads you to say it’s
advanced. It’s derivative of something that doesn’t exist yet,”
