Boeing anticipates additional losses for its CST-100 Starliner commercial crew program in its upcoming fourth-quarter financial report, projecting a $1.7 billion charge across five projects in its Defense, Space and Security unit. This includes $800 million for the KC-46A tanker, $500 million for the T-7A trainer, and $400 million for the Starliner and other programs. The Starliner program has faced delays, with NASA postponing its first operational flight beyond 2025 and continuing to use SpaceX’s Crew Dragon for missions. Boeing has not updated on Starliner’s status since September. Furthermore, a report from Space Capital suggests potential sales of Boeing’s and Airbus’s space divisions, which could alter the space industry landscape significantly. Boeing does not expect to provide more detail until its financial results are reported on January 28.
