    Undertaking its first flight at Toulouse, France, on September 25, 2007 was Airbus A330-203 F-WWKU (c/n 871), which is destined to become the first KC-30 Tanker for the US Air Force, aircraft 'D1', subject to Northrop Grumman winning the KC-X contract. The aircraft, currently a standard A330-200 commercial airframe, flew for nearly four hours. Once initial flight-testing is completed it will be ready for conversion to tanker configuration. Contract award for the USAF KC-135 replacement programme is anticipated in December 2007 or January 2008, but if Northrop Grumman is unsuccessful, this first aircraft will not be converted and instead completed for sale as a normal commercial airliner.

    Airbus Military A330-203 EC-332 (msn 871, ex F-WWKU) was towed to the military apron at Getafe AB in Spain on October 30, 2012. The aircraft was rolled out at Toulouse, southern France, in the summer of 2007 for completion as the first EADS/Northrop Grumman KC-45A for the US Air Force. The original KC-X programme was terminated before the aircraft could be converted to tanker transport configuration, and it has been stored outside the Airbus Military facility at Getafe since September 2011. The airframe may still be converted as a tanker transport, possibly as part of the agreement on April 18 between France, Germany and the Netherlands to boost Europe's fleet of air-to-air refuelling aircraft. The three nations announced they would lead efforts to share existing planes or acquire new ones.
