A new era in naval aviation takes flight!

The first @USNavy MQ-25A Stingray™ has completed its first flight, demonstrating its ability to taxi, take off, fly, and land autonomously.

MQ-25A will extend the carrier air wing's reach by providing unmanned aerial refueling.

[Boeing Defense @BoeingDefense]

First flight. Real voices.

Check out the sights and sounds from the first U.S. Navy MQ-25A Stingray™ flight. Hear from the @USNavy and #TeamBoeing who helped bring this autonomous refueler to the skies.

[Boeing Defense @BoeingDefense]

The first @USNavy MQ-25A Stingray™ completed its second test flight, featuring the aircraft’s first airborne landing gear cycles. The milestone further validates the autonomous flight controls and performance capabilities, moving it closer to carrier operations.

Almost $100 million in Boeing investment. Affordable, mass producible, adaptable long-range capability. Proud to partner with the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy.

We're here for the flyover!

A display of airpower at Sunday’s championship game 🏈: a B-1 led two F-15s, two F/A-18s and two F-35s, trailed by another B-1 with all afterburners blazing. The historic flyover honored America’s 250 anniversary.

This Is The Greatest F-15EX Photo Yet

This absolutely glorious shot of an F-15EX ripping into the vertical over PDX while streaming a full vapor 'cape' is really something else.

As part of this acquisition, #TeamBoeing established Spirit Defense as an independent supplier to continue serving Boeing and other defense contractors.

Nice splice!

We just joined our first T-7A #RedHawk forward fuselage and aft sections on APT-6 – the first production-representative test vehicle advanced trainer for the @USAirForce. Following its digital thread, it was paired in minutes instead of days, like traditional aircraft.

[BAE Systems Air @BAESystemsAir]

We are collaborating with @BoeingDefense and @Saab on a next generation pilot training system based on the T-7 trainer aircraft.

Initially this work will focus on responding to the UK @RoyalAirForce’s requirement for a future trainer aircraft.

15 never looked this good!

F-15 EX15 has officially joined the @142ndWG Oregon Air National Guard as their eighth #F15EX. This delivery reflects close collaboration between production, test, logistics, and the Oregon @AirNatlGuard — a true team achievement.

The Eagle has landed. 🦅

The @AirandSpace Smithsonian Institution welcomes an F‑15C Eagle. Hear from Capt. Cesar “Rico” Rodriguez, who flew this aircraft, and what it means to him to see the legacy fighter in the museum's collection.

Red Hawk sighting! 👀

Our T-7A #RedHawk dropped in to visit our @Saab_Inc teammates in West Lafayette, Indiana, for the first time. The team there builds the aft section of the @USAirForce advanced trainer and welcomed the jet during their employee family day.
