Airbus to provide SmartForce-based digital service to support ARBS on RAAF's KC-30A MRTT fleet

by Gabriel Dominguez

Airbus has secured a contract to provide a digital service to better support the Air Refuelling Boom System (ARBS) on the Royal Australian Air Force’s (RAAF’s) A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) aircraft, which are known as KC-30A MRTTs in RAAF service.

Based on the Airbus SmartForce suite of digital services, this service is “intended to support the operator in reducing maintenance costs and improving fleet availability by optimising the fault diagnosis and troubleshooting tasks for the ARBS of the tanker aircraft, based on data analytics applications”, said the company in a 28 January statement.
