Next rumor: Turkish Airforce to replace their 7 KC135R with 7 A330MRTT using existing aircraft from Turkish Airlines.

HvKK to Replace KC-135R Statotankers with A330 MRTTs

According to the information I have obtained, concrete progress has been made in the negotiations that started with Airbus Defense & Space in 2020, and it is said that the green light for the project may be given in the summer of 2021 (July/August).

Under the project, which will be carried out under the coordination of the Military Factory and Shipyard Operation Joint Stock Company (ASFAT A.Ş.) within the body of the Ministry of National Defense (MSB), 7 A330 MRTT Aircraft in total are expected to be delivered to the Turkish Air Force, to be replaced one-to-one with the 7 KC-135R Stratotankers in the inventory. According to the information I have obtained, it is planned to supply 2+5 planes within the framework of Turkey's higher business package demand.

According to the current plan, in the first phase, ASFAT will select 7 aircraft with the lowest engine flight hours among the A330-200 passenger aircraft in the Turkish Airlines (THY) Fleet on behalf of the MSB (there are 14 A330-200 aircraft in the fleet).

I would go for the 7 frames with the least hours / cycles and also the 14 engines with the least hours aswell, mix and match 😉

The Indonesian Air Force could get 2 A330 MRTT:

via Google Translate:

Finance Minister Sri Mulyani is said to have approved the proposal of Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto to purchase 2 Airbus A330 MRTT tanker aircraft.

Quoted from the Janes website , Tuesday (22/6), the contract value for the procurement of 2 units of the A330 MRTT is USD 700 million or equivalent to Rp. 9.8 trillion (exchange rate of USD 1 = Rp. 14,000) with a foreign debt scheme . Later, the tanker will be operated by the Indonesian Air Force to support refueling fighter jets in the air.

GMF and the Indonesian Air Force assess aspects of operational costs, the ability to carry out maintenance in the country, the ability to refuel fighter jets in the air, and compatibility with the assets currently owned by the TNI. The study was conducted on Airbus A 330 MRTT, Boeing KC 46 A Pegasus and Ilyushin II-78 made in Russia.
