I think what people don't fully appreciate is that the US will never allow Boeing to go bankrupt. A ecosystem around it is too important for the military industry.

Worst case scenario they'll order 200 of the worst assembled 737s as troop carriers. Hopefully they'll then just have them sit in an Arizona desert.

Boeing defense and Boeing commercial are (probably) separate entities.

But I do agree in general that the US Gov would want there to be an American civilian aircraft manufacturer.

Otherwise it’s just Airbus, right?

Same parent. Anyway it's buying commercial aircraft (with a BS military excuse to dodge the anti protectionist trade agreements.)
