Britain stays as part of Airbus

Seems the 12 french aircraft were delivered after the 808 Americans, so 1964 or 1965 (Mirage IVA first standing nuclear alert was October 1964 in my birth place... 18 years later: Mont de Marsan.)

Also only 732 C-135s were KC-135s, seems the other 76 were something else but not tankers.
45 transport versions (AFAIK as a stop-gap for the C-141), 17 airborne command posts & 14 for reconnaissance. Total 76.
