Etihad Airways Airbus A330-200 landing at London (Heathrow) Airport in July 2004
The A330 MRTT is also in the running to land a contract from the United States Air Force for perhaps up to 200 tankers to replace aging KC-135 and KC-10 aircraft.
Airbus intended the A330 to compete directly in the ETOPS (Extended Twin-engine Operations) market, which was effectively established by the Boeing 767.

 Airbus A330-200
Airbus now hopes to change that with its new A330-200, a twinjet that not only offers the traditional Airbus benefits of a wider cabin and extra freight capacity but significantly increased range performance over either the 767-300ER or the directly competing 767-400ER.
Airbus of course pioneered the market a quarter century ago with the original A300, a then high capacity twinjet that in its launch version had a range of barely 1890nm (3500km) and was optimised specifically for the transcontinental market.
Airbus also notes a higher cruise speed of Mach 0.82/83 which it claims offers a time advantage over a 767 on a typical Europe/LAX sector of half an hour.

With Airbus one counts to be able to sell in the next twenty to twenty five years at least 900 to 1.100 Airbus A330 including the new A330-200; that come down on a long-term basis to a monthly production rate from seven to eight twin jets.
This twin-jet Airbus (the photo shows the model A330-200), which has a range of approximately 8,600 kilometers, took off on November 02, 1992 at 05.25 A.M. in the morning to its first flight, which lasted about 5 hours and 35 minutes, and the airplane went into the airline service at the beginning of 1994.

 Airbus A330 MRTT - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Airbus A330 Multi Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) is a next generation aerial refueling tanker aircraft based on the Airbus A330-200.
Part of the original rationale for rejecting the A330 in 2002, which has some greater attributes as a tanker than the 767, was that Airbus lacked experience in aerial refueling aircraft.
One of the greatest attiributes of the A330 as a tanker aircraft is its massive internal fuel capacity, the 111,000 kg / 122 tons of fuel is held in the wings which leaves the lower deck available for cargo.

 Encyclopedia: Airbus
The name "Airbus" was taken from a non-proprietary term used by the airline industry in the 1960s to refer to a commercial aircraft of a certain size and range, for this term was acceptable to the French linguistically.
Airbus is given launch aid from European governments with the money being paid back with interest, plus indefinite royalties, but only if the plane is a commercial success[1].
In January 1999 Airbus established a separate company, Airbus Military S.A.S., to undertake development and production of a turboprop powered military transport aircraft (the Airbus Military A400M.) The A400M is being developed by several NATO members, Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Spain, Turkey, and the UK, as an alternative to the C-130 Hercules.
