flightglobal.com: Seattle-area politicians seething over Boeing tanker defeat

Bad news for Boeing, good news for Mobile, Ala.: The US Air Force picked the Northrup Grumman KC-45A as the next-generation aerial refueling aircraft. The KC-45A will be based on the Airbus A330. The Mobile facility, the former Brookley Air Force Base, which closed in the late '60s, will also be used for final assembly of the freighter version of the A330, bringing about 1800 jobs to Mobile.
