Exports of aircraft and their parts from the US grow 23%

Exports of aircraft and their parts from the United States grew at a year-on-year rate of 23.1% from January to April 2022, to 31,147 million dollars, according to statistics from the Department of Commerce.

The aerospace industry is highly regulated in the United States by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

A sharp decline followed: these exports fell to $136.519 million in 2019 and dropped again to $81.294 million in 2020.

The recovery was with an increase of 10% year-on-year in 2021, when the United States exported aircraft and their parts for a value of 89,136 million dollars.
