"Since the arrival of the first aircraft March 11, 1999, the program has continually operated on time, on schedule, and on budget," said to Steve Anderson, program director at Flight Systems, "lending to an increase in the number of aircraft modified from the original contract order." Since that time, 277 in-flight aerial re-fueling tankers have been modified at BAE SYSTEMS. Serving as a backdrop for the ceremony was the final delivery aircraft, which is due to leave Mojave within the week. The program was a three-way effort, with BAE doing the work, DMCA providing quality assurance support and the U.S. Air Force providing flight operations. The BAE crews typically delivered 11-12 aircraft per month, with a peak of 15 aircraft completed in March 2002. At the high-water mark, this program alone employed some 300 technicians at the Mojave facility. Total contract value was $58 million. -

Since that time, 277 in-flight aerial re-fueling tankers have been modified at BAE SYSTEMS in Mojave, and then delivered back to United States Armed Forces. The final aircraft will complete modification this month and be delivered back into service to support our troops in the field to meet their on-going missions.
