Boeing to Showcase at Farnborough Airshow

Boeing will showcase its leading commercial, defense and services portfolio at the Farnborough International Airshow, reaffirming its commitment to customers, collaboration and the future of aerospace. Boeing’s exhibit and program will spotlight engineering excellence, development programs, investments in new capabilities, and long‑term global partnerships.

“Every day is an opportunity to continue building trust as we focus on safety, quality and on-time performance,” said Kelly Ortberg, Boeing president and chief executive officer. “At Farnborough, we look forward to reconnecting with our customers and suppliers, and strengthening our international partnerships — including Boeing’s more than 85‑year commitment to the United Kingdom — built upon the full range of our commercial, defense and services capabilities.”

For the first time, the uncrewed MQ-28 Ghost Bat collaborative combat aircraft — designed to augment crewed aircraft by performing roles such as surveillance, electronic warfare and force multiplication — will debut on static display at the airshow.

Displays and Experiences

Visitors to the Boeing exhibit (C-620) will experience immersive and interactive product and technology displays including a full-size 777X interior section with its wider cabin and spacious architecture. The exhibit will also feature the T-7 flight deck simulator, providing a hands-on experience of the fighter trainer’s performance and capabilities. BAE’s Pavillion (Hall 5) will also have a T-7 simulator available for media visits.

Boeing will highlight its services offerings for government and commercial customers including parts, modifications, cabin products, digital services and training solutions. The exhibit will also host the Boeing Cascade Climate Impact Model, a data-modeling and visualization tool that evaluates pathways to make aviation more sustainable as the industry grows.

Boeing products on display will include:

  • Boeing MQ-28 Ghost Bat
  • U.S. Army CH-47F Chinook
  • UK Joint Aviation Command CH-47 Chinook.
