Airbus A300-600R Extended-Range Widebody Airliner/Freighter Variant
The Airbus A300-600R is the extended-range A300-600 derivative with additional fuel capability, represented by the B4-600R passenger models and the PW4158-powered B4-622R. Freighter F4-600R derivatives and the A300-600ST Beluga remain separate boundaries. Airbus lists 171,700 kg MTOW for B4-600R weight variants WV001, WV002 and WV004, compared with 170,500 kg for WV000 basic. The standard single-class planning layout has 274 seats. These are named weight and cabin configurations; range and payload depend on the selected aircraft and mission.
