If I recall Boeing asks the US to tariff Bombardiers aircraft (300%?)[1] that pushed a potential competitor (Bombardier) to work with Airbus (The Airbus 220 is a Bombardier design).

I worked in defense as a boeing sub. Boeing was the prime on radars and all manner of defense contracts that will keep them afloat (defense industry is another not very competetive one..).

But I don't think Boeing is at all guaranteed at getting international business, at least not on the scale they did before, if they don't do some brutal but effective restructuring of their corporate culture. They could easily end up shut out of international airliner business indefinitely, if they keep screwing up in the way they have been so far.
