A milestone check list item was a success on February 13, 2016 when this KC-10 gave the KC-46 a test load of fuel. There are three more refueling test coming for the KC-46 giving fuel to other aircraft types such as the Marine Harrier, A-10 Warthog, and C-17. It was also noted (Flightglobal) that multiple cargo configurations tests on the ground were accomplished having an under two hour time limit.
