This country can't handle it, the US Air Force awarded a multi-billion dollar deal to Airbus and EADS for the new KC-X tanker project to replace the Boeing 707-based KC-135 currently in service. Boeing bid with the KC-767 variant of the widebody 767 airliner (which is slated for replacement by the 787 next year). Boeing lost to Airbus's A330-based tanker.
This deal has now been re-opened by the Air Force, allowing Boeing to re-bid the project.
