Boeing expands KC-7A7 flexibility with GEnx as engine option
Boeing is putting more pressure on Northrop Grumman/EADS by signaling its intention to offer the GEnx engine for its 767 or 777 tanker proposal to the USAF.

This would give the USAF a wide range of options to choose from when it selects its next tanker aircraft.

Stephen Trimble also said the 777 option should offer Boeing a size advantage over the smaller Airbus A330-200.
