Saudi Arabia to Buy Fleet of Boeing Aircraft

Saudi Arabia will buy a new fleet of Boeing aircraft, the company announced this week, including 787 Boeing Dreamliners. The Commerce Department said Saudi Arabia chose “GE Aerospace’s GEnx engine to power the aircraft,” which will lead to “billions more in U.S. exports” and support American jobs. Deals “like the one announced today underscore the strength of America’s private sector, workers, and technology in the competitive global landscape,” Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said.
