Boeing Moves Defense HQ Back to St. Louis

Boeing is relocating its Defense, Space & Security HQ from Crystal City in Arlington, Virginia to St. Louis, while the global HQ stays in Arlington; the move aims to keep leaders close to a major engineering and manufacturing workforce, with about 18,000 Boeing employees in the St. Louis region, and follows ongoing multi‑year investments in advanced production facilities. The division will continue to have a Virginia presence, and daily operations are not expected to change.

Boeing returns its defense HQ to St. Louis, reinforcing an aerospace hub

The relocation aims to bring leaders closer to major engineering, production and manufacturing centers, with the St. Louis area employing more than 18,000 Boeing workers across three facilities. The move was celebrated by state and federal officials and follows last year’s 15-week machinists strike, which ended after voters approved a new contract.

Boeing Fighter Jet Workers in St. Louis Reject Contract Offer

Over 3,200 Boeing union workers at St Louis plants are expected to strike after rejecting a proposed contract that included a 20% wage increase over four years, citing it fell short of their priorities. The union had initially considered the offer favorable, but members felt it did not adequately address their needs, leading to the rejection just before Boeing's earnings announcement.
