The contract will be awarded to Airbus, which will modernize and maintain the C295 and A330 MRTT aircraft. Airbus has industrial capabilities in Sevilla and Getafe for both models.
The company will open a new A330 MRTT conversion center in Sevilla next year, and also develop maintenance, repair, and overhaul operations for the aircraft. The modernization program is part of a broader effort to upgrade the military's air capabilities.
