Boeing has benefited from government grants and tax breaks just as Airbus did.
From YOUR article:
"Airbus lost $27 billion in revenue from 2004 to 2006 as a result of state tax breaks and outright government grants to Boeing. It also alleges that Washington has provided billions of dollars in indirect support to Boeing's commercial jet programs through contracts with the U.S. military and space programs."
Quit your whining already.
Boeing offered an inferior product based on an OBSOLETE airframe that neither had the range or load carrying capability that the Airforce was looking for. And Boeing can't even deliver the 8 KC767 tankers that were ordered on time.
By the way tax breaks are not the same as a direct subsidy. However, apparently the government does not agree with you or they would not be suing in WTO court. I am confused. I thought you said the lawsuit was BS? It doesn’t change the point that we awarded a multi-billion contract to a company we are in the process of suing.
