Secures Spirit sites serving Airbus and defends European supply security

On December 8, 2025, Boeing completed its $4.7 billion acquisition of Spirit AeroSystems, valuing the deal at about $8.3 billion including debt and reversing a 2005 spin‑off that created the world’s largest independent aerostructures supplier.
