Aircraft Manufacturing federal obligations in Texas

USAspending.gov records $4,333,013,561 in Aircraft Manufacturing (NAICS 336411) obligations with Texas place of performance, across 5,191 awards. That pair is an industry code crossed with a geography filter, not a national aviation budget. Average obligation per award is about $834,717 — a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical airframe contract.

Key figures

  • NAICS 336411 in Texas: $4,333,013,561 across 5,191 awards.
  • Average obligation per award is about $834,717.
  • The total is obligations, not outlays, and not nationwide Aircraft manufacturing.
  • TX is place of performance, not a plant-only split.

What NAICS 336411 and Texas share on one row

NAICS 336411 and place-of-performance state TX meet here. $4,333,013,561 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in Texas, not the nationwide Aircraft Manufacturing total, and not cash already paid. Statewide airframe and assembly folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not a plant list and not a tail-number census.

5,191 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — thousands of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total. Thousands of rows can mix modifications with larger instruments. The join does not rank Texas against other states and does not name airframes inside the extract.

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

Aircraft-manufacturing actions under a Texas geography tag

Dividing $4,333,013,561 by 5,191 yields about $834,717 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical airframe contract. NAICS 336411 is finished aircraft, not parts (336413) and not missiles (336414). Those codes sit on other industry hubs. Do not collapse them because all three appear in Texas.

Statewide airframe and assembly folklore 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 Texas overlay is a different total

The NAICS 336411 page aggregates NAICS 336411 without requiring TX geography. The Texas federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with Texas place of performance. Texas industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 336411 filter and the TX filter, which is why it cites 5,191 awards and $4,333,013,561.

Place of performance in Texas is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list TX while assembly occurs elsewhere. 336411 awards coded to other states do not sit in this total even if a plant’s mailroom is in Fort Worth. This packet does not split Fort Worth from San Antonio or Houston.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $4,333,013,561 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 Texas over-reads the field.

Award count 5,191 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use Texas federal spending, NAICS 336411, and Texas 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 Texas does not mean airframers caused Texas’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 $4,333,013,561 labeled as NAICS 336411 obligations with Texas 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 Texas–336411 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 336411 (Aircraft Manufacturing), Texas place of performance, $4,333,013,561 in obligations, and 5,191 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $4,333,013,561 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $834,717 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical airframe contract.

Texas federal spending, NAICS 336411, Texas industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $4,333,013,561 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Fort Worth-versus-San Antonio folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Do not merge 336411 with 336413. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.

Do not treat a thousands of award actions behind a multi-billion obligation total as a unique-firm census. Unique recipients are not published here. Keep NAICS 336411 and TX as the join key even if a later USAspending ingest restates $4,333,013,561. Those stories are not a plant list and not a tail-number census.

Is this a Fort Worth-only aircraft total?
No. $4,333,013,561 and 5,191 awards are statewide Texas place of performance. This packet does not split Fort Worth from San Antonio or Houston. A regional cut would be a different extract, not this NAICS–state join. Original filings remain on the source sites.
