The term "Hangar queen" seems not in place. Was still flying two weeks ago.

Stupid question probably, must have missed this elsewhere: Why are we calling the A330MRTT suddenly KC-30? I thought the USAF designation was KC-45?

Agree! The RAAF calls them KC-30, but aren‘t they just A330MRTT for the KLu/MMU?

They are
On the other hand: what's in a name? As long as we share info and can figure what it means, I'm happy.

84-0096 C-21A "Falcon 02".
the T-056 appears to be a hangar queen
It may appear to be a hangar queen but this is not due to technical problems or similar negative reasons: I recall reading in some German article that T-056 is being configured into a Medevac configuration so that explains why it is not flying as frequent as the rest of the fleet.

I think the MMU is calling them KC-30M, not A330MRTT. In addition I think there is no such thing as a KC-45 after the USAF cancelled the project.

On internet site of Dutch Defensie they call it an A330-MRTT.
