AirTanker - a new era in air-to-air refuelling
AirTanker is a UK company dedicated exclusively to providing the Future Strategic Tanker Aircraft (FSTA) to the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD).

Under the world’s largest Defence Private Finance Initiative (PFI) contract, AirTanker will deliver a service that provides comprehensive air-to-air refuelling and air transport capabilities to the Royal Air Force (RAF), using new, multi role tanker transport aircraft derived from Airbus A330-200 commercial airliners.

With the contract and the financing in place detailed preparations are now underway to enable service delivery to begin from 2011.
