Boeing Wins $2.47B USAF Contract for 15 More KC-46A Tankers

Boeing has secured a $2.47 billion US Air Force contract for 15 additional KC-46A Pegasus aerial refueling tankers under Lot 12, marking continued momentum for the program following a delivery resumption in July 2025. The award reinforces production stability across Boeing’s supply chain and supports the Air Force’s critical fleet modernization efforts. With 183 aircraft now on contract or in service globally—including 98 delivered to the USAF—the KC-46A remains essential as legacy tanker fleets age and retirement accelerates.
