USAF Examining KC-46A Software Integration Effort
The US Air Force is considering a KC-46A Software Integration Sustainment & Support effort, known as K-SWISS, for the Boeing Pegasus tanker. The prospective work would involve the KC-46A Systems Integration Laboratory at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, a high-fidelity environment for testing aircraft software, avionics and hardware. The service identified that the original interim support agreement, whose performance period ended in June 2022, had not established provisions for stand-alone software maintenance. K-SWISS concerns the definition of software integration and sustainment support requirements for the tanker.
