Airbus SE said Monday that it will develop a communications and mission system upgrade for the A330 multi-role tanker transport fleet of the Royal Australian Air Force.

"The scope of Work...will mainly cover a retrofit package, which includes new and additional Communications Capabilities and Enhanced Mission Systems, bringing it up to the latest enhanced A330 MRTT standard," the European plane maker said.

Airbus has 61 orders for the military tanker-and-transport aircraft to date, it said.
