The story said that if a plant were built in the US, it would probably be in Mobile, Alabama - this is also important because the company has long been seeking a contract with the US military to build tanker airplanes. An Airbus official pointed out that if the company were to build the tankers in the US, it would be more difficult for the military to reject Airbus' offer because they are a European company.
