Departed later that afternoon to return to its base at RAF Brize Norton, UK. Delivered new to Air Tanker in December 2012. Taken on strength by the RAF as Multi-Role Tanker Transport ZZ336 in 2015. Began operations by the RAF on behalf of the Government of the United Kingdom in a striking new national VIP colour scheme from June 2020, when Boris Johnson was Prime Minister.
