Italian Giant Mountains for revision. A chance for Airbus?

In 2011, the Italians began implementing 4 Boeing 767-200ER-based air-fueling aircraft into service. 3 years ago, plans were announced for the expansion of this fleet to acquisition 2 KC-46A Pegasus, which was to go hand in hand with modernization to a akin standard already owned by KC-767. In this way Rome was to get a fleet of six air refueling machines in 2 akin variants, with common logistics, as well as interoperable with a fleet of akin aircraft in the U.S. Air Force.
