Description

Without modernization, the U.S. Air Force's KC-10 air refueling fleet will not be in compliance with upcoming air traffic mandates regulating the minimum communication, navigation, and surveillance capabilities of aircraft flying in certain regions and altitudes. A detailed analysis of the cost-effectiveness of KC-10 modernization showed that, overall, the required upgrades would result in net cost avoidance over the life of the fleet.
