Melsbroek Airbase B - 15th Wing Air Transport - Netherlands - Royal Air Force Airbus A330-243MRTT 02

            Rolls-Royce Trent, 316 kN

The Multinational MRTT Unit (Multinational Multi Role Tanker Transport Unit, MMU) is a NATO flying association under construction to manage the aircraft of the Multinational MRTT Unit (MMU), which has its main location (Main Operating Base). The deployments of the Airbus-A330-MRTT-Fleet in version KC-30M are coordinated by the European Air Transport Command (EATC) in Eindhoven.

The MMF programme is led by the Netherlands. All participating States shall finance the procurement and operation in accordance with their booked flight hours. With ten aircraft there are 11,000 hours per year to distribute, of which the German Luftwaffe has taken over the largest share with 5500 hours. Four of the A330 MRTTs will therefore be stationed at FOB (Forward Operating Base) at Cologne/Bonn Airport.  A machine will be available for MedEvac flights around the clock. In addition to Germany, the Netherlands decreases 2000 hours (in succession to its two KDC-10), Belgium 2100 (initially 1000), Luxembourg 1200 (previously 200), and Norway and the Czech Republic each 100 hours.
