The American corporation Boeing has encountered serious difficulties in the production of new aircraft due to sanctions imposed against Russia, the Wall Street Journal reported on May 3.
Problems arose due to the termination of RTX work in Russia, the publication reports.
RTX produced temperature control equipment for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
After the start of the special operation, the company reduced its activities in the Russian Federation, which caused a shortage of components.
“When the invasion occurred, production was moved, but the capacity of the new supplier was not sufficient to meet our needs.”“,” RTX CEO David Calhoun is quoted as saying.
In addition to problems with thermal control equipment, Boeing is also experiencing difficulties in supplying passenger seats for the 787 model.
These chairs were supplied by an external company, but due to sanctions there were interruptions in their delivery.
Therefore, the sanctions imposed against Russia have a negative impact on Boeing’s production activities.
The company is forced to address component shortage issues, which could cause delays in the production of new aircraft.
