They got rich from their jumbo jets for airliners and the military and bought most of the American Companies that built fighter jets.

There are really only three companies left, and there was a lot of talk that if Boeing had won the F-35 contract, Lockheed would have gone under/been bought out by Boeing and we'd only have two left.

Fortunately, Boeing's alternative to the F-35 was this piece of shit.

If Boeing could use that design to make a 4.5 gen AV-X to replace the second generation AV-8 that would be great, as a multirole it kinda sucks.
