On Thursday, the U.S.
Commerce Department wrapped up its investigation into imported commercial aircraft and parts, identifying national security concerns but refraining from imposing new tariffs.
The investigation, initiated last year, found that the U.S. aircraft industry is overly dependent on foreign supply chains, leading to national security concerns.
The report also highlighted risks associated with imported aircraft parts due to quality control and counterfeiting issues.
It also highlighted that competition from lower-cost foreign manufacturers is forcing U.S. aircraft companies to keep wages low or curb hiring, making jobs in the industry less attractive.
