Delayed: Boeing F-15EX Deliveries Behind Schedule Due To St. Louis Strike

Boeing workers in St. Louis have been on strike for nearly three months.

The incident forced the jet to land at a military base in Suffolk.

With over a thousand F-35s built and thousands more on order, the F-35’s flyaway costs can be lower than some fourth-generation fighter jets.

Boeing produces fighter jets, militarized commercial aircraft, helicopters, advanced drones, as well as military satellites for the US and allies.

The United States and China appear to be leading the sixth-gen race, with Europeans and the Japanese following behind.

A local expert has confirmed that videos of the incident show a sonic boom, sparking debate.

A total of 131 C-5 Galaxies were built, while Boeing’s losing design went on to be the 747 and accumulated over 1,500 sales.

The Antonov An-124 Ruslan is larger than the Super Galaxy, although there are areas where the Super Galaxy has the edge over the Ruslan.

Fewer than 30 Lockheed U-2 Dragon Ladies remain in service with the USAF and NASA, with that number set to fall further in the coming months.

52 Lockheed C-5s remain flying today, with most of the original 81 C-52Bs scrapped, in storage, or written off.
