Boeing — North Charleston, SC

Why it matters

The aerospace context.

US aerospace demand is being driven simultaneously by record commercial-aircraft backlogs and a Department of Defense modernization cycle covering bombers, ICBMs, submarines, and hypersonics. Most projects in this category are constrained by skilled-labor availability — welders, composite technicians, machinists — rather than by capital.
