Aerospace Giants Plan Major Capital Expenditure Push for 2026

Major aerospace manufacturers are preparing for a significant surge in capital expenditures, with 2026 emerging as a peak investment year. Both Airbus and Boeing are driving this trend with substantial spending on new facilities and program development. Key Airbus projects include a new A321neo final assembly line and the A350 freighter, while Boeing is focusing on its 777-9 and 737 MAX 10 programs. This wave of spending, the largest since the mid-2010s, aims to overcome production bottlenecks and support future rate increases across the supply chain.
