Accelerating Commercial And Defense Operations Across US
GE Aerospace is investing $1 billion to accelerate engine production for the Boeing 737 MAX and Airbus A320neo, as well as strengthen its defense operations. The investment will expand manufacturing capacity for the CFM LEAP engine and support the production of durable parts. GE Aerospace plans to generate 5,000 new jobs in the US and benefit sites across more than 30 communities in 17 states. The company’s strategy aims to safely extend time between maintenance shop visits and strengthen defense production to keep pace with military demand, as reported by AeroTime.
