Airbus is targeting North America for future sales of its A330-200 Multi Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) aircraft, with a senior company official telling Janes and other defence media that the region has been “a blind spot” for the platform up until now.

Speaking at Airbus' annual Trade Media Briefing, being held virtually for a second year due to the Covid-19 pandemic, head of Military Aircraft within Airbus Defence and Space, Jean-Brice Dumont, said that Airbus has already been downselected as the sole contender for Canada's Strategic Tanker Transport Capability (STTC) project, and the company is teaming with Lockheed Martin to secure the KC-Y Bridge Tanker requirement for the United States.
