The Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF) has received an initial A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport (MRTT). Flown by an Airbus and ROKAF crew, serial 18- 001 (c 1787, MRTT050, ex EC-331) completed its ferry flight from Getafe, Spain to Gimhae Air Base via a stopover in Vancouver, Canada, arriving in South Korea on November 12. Acceptance evaluations - including refuelling F-15K and F-16 fighters - were expected to take around a month before the MRTT could be deployed operationally. The air force has completed initial pilot training for the A330. Four A330 MRTTs are scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2019 under the $1.32bn KC-X programme.
