BEagie,

Several other ways to give Boeing more work: more C-17's, more F-18's, more P-8's and EP-8 or whatever they call it development, other component systems, more for black projects you and I haven't heard about, or give Boeing some pieces of the F-35 to manufacture, similar to Boeing's share of the F-22:

Boeing is teamed with Lockheed Martin, Pratt & Whitney and the U.S. Air Force to produce the F-22 Raptor air dominance fighter. The Raptor's unique combination of stealth, speed, agility, precision and situational awareness make it overwhelmingly effective in its combined air-to-air and air-to-ground mission capability. In its expanding role as an ISR asset, the F-22 is making the entire joint force more effective by collecting timely information about the forward reaches of the battlespace and relaying it to other aircraft and command/control nodes. Ongoing modernization efforts -- including integration of the Small Diameter Bomb, electronic attack capability, synthetic aperture radar and the Coordinate Seeking Weapon -- will ensure the Raptor's relevance throughout its 40-year service life.

Recent Achievements ...
