The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

aviationweek.com - Boeing wins US navy fa xx fighter competition

Boeing has won the race to develop the next U.S. Navy carrier-based combat aircraft less than 18 months after the company got the nod to build the F-47 for the U.S. Air Force.

The Navy’s Sept. 29 announcement cements Boeing’s position as the developer of the next generation of U.S. tactical combat aircraft, completing a turn-around less than a decade after some feared the company’s historic fighter production center in St. Louis would end with the demise of the production for the F/A-18E/F and F-15E.

The Navy, in an announcement, said the contract is valued at more than $20 billion for the full-scale development phase, covering multiple test aircraft for ground, air worthiness, systems and weapons integration testing.

Massive W for Boeing here.
