At least Boeing didn’t get the contract. They are barely getting by with their 767 tankers. An airframe they’ve been building for 40 years
They’ll probably just let the JetZero outfit do the real development and then buy the company. After that they’ll delay the project on purpose and get more development money from the Air Force to barely tweak the plane and slap some Boeing stickers on the side.
It’s a damn shame what happened to that once great company. They’re being outclassed by nearly everyone else these days.

A believe another major MIC contractor is involved so hope this won’t be the case.
The Starliner contract by itself is head scratching. SpaceX been launching humans to the ISS for 3 years now and Boeing can’t even confidently pass an unmanned flight test yet. I’d hate to be on the docket for the upcoming manned test flight
