On December 19, 2018, Spirit AeroSystems announced plans to invest more than $80 million in an expansion of its facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The company, which produces aircraft structures for commercial aviation and the defense sector, also expects to hire 250 people over the next three years.
The project will support fuselage manufacturing and assembly work, as well as bolster efficiency throughout the company — including freeing up space in Spirit’s flagship Wichita, Kansas, facility for production of Boeing’s 737.
