Boeing 767 Tanker

Using technology developed across our government and commercial businesses, Rockwell Collins is serving a major role on an important new global tanker refueling program - the Boeing KC-767 - that has already been selected by the Japanese and Italian governments. This tanker is based on the commercial 767 platform, which uses the Rockwell Collins standard 767-200 cockpit avionics, including our commercial Very High Frequency (VHF) products and our latest Predictive Windshear Weather Radar. This solution also features our suite of military communications and navigation products, including modifications to our ARN-153 Tactical Air Navigation (TACAN) system product line to provide air-to-air beacon capability. We have modified the display system to fully support the Military Tanker Mission. Rockwell Collins has also augmented the built-in provisions for beyond line-of-sight (BLOS) communications and the ability to expand to advanced Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity. Rockwell Collins also provides our integrated Link-16 data link processing capability that supplies the flight crew and Remote Air Refueling Operator (RARO) with enhanced real-time situational awareness. Additionally, we supply the head-mounted display systems for the RARO.
