Aircraft Manufacturing federal obligations in Missouri

What NAICS 336411 and Missouri share on one row

NAICS 336411 and place-of-performance state MO meet here. $3,983,853,305 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in Missouri, not the nationwide Aircraft Manufacturing total, and not cash already paid. St. Louis airframe folklore and statewide assembly stories may send a reader here. Those stories are not a plant list and not a tail-number census.

512 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — hundreds of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total. A shorter row list can still hold a large dollar total if a few awards dominate. The join does not rank Missouri against other states and does not name airframes inside the extract.

Open Missouri federal spending for the filtered table, NAICS 336411 for the next hub, Missouri industries for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

A shorter aircraft-manufacturing award list under one Missouri filter

Dividing $3,983,853,305 by 512 yields about $7,780,963 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical airframe contract. A second 336411 slice on another state uses the same NAICS code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Missouri’s 336411 total as a synonym for every federal aircraft purchase.

St. louis airframe folklore and statewide assembly stories is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Recipient rows live on the industry and state hubs, not in this narrative’s extra columns.

NAICS 336411 without a Missouri overlay is a different total

The NAICS 336411 page aggregates NAICS 336411 without requiring MO geography. The Missouri federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with Missouri place of performance. Missouri industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 336411 filter and the MO filter, which is why it cites 512 awards and $3,983,853,305.

Place of performance in Missouri is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list MO while assembly occurs in Texas or Kansas. 336411 awards coded to those states do not sit in this total even if a plant’s mailroom is in St. Louis. This packet does not split St. Louis from Kansas City or Springfield.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $3,983,853,305 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as money already spent in Missouri over-reads the field.

Award count 512 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use Missouri federal spending, NAICS 336411, and Missouri industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug.

What this pair does not prove

A large 336411 total in Missouri does not mean airframers caused Missouri’s industrial mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between plant geography and aircraft awards is expected; it is not a finding about readiness or waste.

Keep $3,983,853,305 labeled as NAICS 336411 obligations with Missouri place of performance. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset. An industry name that appears near a donor occupation is a coincidence of labeling, not a cash pipeline into USAspending.

How to cite the Missouri–336411 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing), Missouri place of performance, $3,983,853,305 in obligations, and 512 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $3,983,853,305 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $7,780,963 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical airframe contract.

Missouri federal spending, NAICS 336411, Missouri industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $3,983,853,305 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. St. Louis-versus-Kansas City folklore is not a metro split in this packet. A shorter award list is still a record count, including modifications. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.

Do not treat a hundreds of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total as a unique-firm census. Unique recipients are not published here. Keep NAICS 336411 and MO as the join key even if a later USAspending ingest restates $3,983,853,305. Those stories are not a plant list and not a tail-number census.
