Key chokepoints (3)
Single-crystal turbine blades
⚠ active chokepoint
Qualification cycles and scrap sensitivity keep turbine-blade supply concentrated among a few aerospace specialists.
Jet engine forged disks
⚠ active chokepoint
Forging capacity and powder metallurgy lead times constrain engine ramp-ups in France, the UK, and the US.
Civil aero engine MRO
⚠ active chokepoint
MRO backlogs keep airlines short of spare engines, magnifying any upstream parts disruption.
