Construction of the new three-bay hangar continues at the KC-46A campus at Tinker AFB. When finished, the facility will consist of three hangar docks sized to enclose the KC-46A aircraft. At completion, the 158-acre campus will provide eight hangars, ramp infrastructure, software innovation labs, and engine test facilities. The Pegasus eventually will replace the KC-135, another refueling tanker that has a maintenance mission at Tinker. The KC-46 which is constructed on a Boeing 767 airframe is taller, longer and has a larger wingspan than that of the KC-135, necessitating the need for new hangars and facilities for depot maintenance.
