Boeing has underbid and underperformed every defense program. They have won over the last decade.
The refueling tanker was a huge loss and was years late. Same for the new trainer and the MQ 25 refueling drone.
Given that history, why would the government choose Boeing?
Furthermore, given Boeing‘s history of losing billions of dollars on new defense programs what’s gonna happen when this program the F 47 which is the biggest program they have one in recent memory also has historic losses and is again years late?
