What is the Airbus A300’s maximum takeoff weight in its A300B4-600R version?

The Airbus A300B4-600R has a maximum takeoff weight of 170,500 kilograms.

The A300B4-600R was a later and improved version of Airbus’s first commercial airliner. Its maximum takeoff weight reflects the combined mass of the aircraft, fuel, passengers, baggage, and cargo permitted at departure under specified operating conditions.

The -600 series incorporated improvements derived from the A310, including updated systems and a modernized two-person cockpit. The -600R added increased range capability through additional fuel arrangements and higher operating weights compared with earlier A300 versions.

Maximum takeoff weight is not the same as operating empty weight or payload. It is also not identical for every A300 model: different variants have different structural limits and performance specifications. The 170,500-kilogram figure specifically identifies the A300B4-600R configuration.
