Congresswoman Ann Wagner has expressed her support for President Donald Trump's decision to have Boeing manufacture the new F-47 fighter jet in St. Louis, Missouri. This announcement highlights significant investments by Boeing in Missouri aimed at advancing next-generation fighter aircraft and creating jobs.

Wagner stated, "This is amazing news for the Greater St. Louis region and our nation’s security. Boeing has already made massive investments in Missouri to support next generation fighter aircraft and good paying jobs in our communities, and I want to thank President Trump for his leadership in trusting the hardworking men and women in our great state to build the F-47, which will undoubtedly be the most advanced stealth fighter jet in the world."

She further emphasized her commitment to collaborating with local defense industry partners, saying, "I have been proud to work with so many partners in our local defense industrial base, and I will continue to provide all the federal support necessary to bolster our state’s economy and our national defense."

The development of the F-47 is expected to enhance both regional economic growth and national security.
