[1/2] A Boeing logo is seen at the 54th International Paris Airshow at Le Bourget Airport near Paris, France, June 18, 2023.
The move comes more than three years after it pulled out of a billion-dollar deal to buy the commercial division of local planemaker Embraer (EMBR3.SA).
Boeing sees both firms aligned in the goal of developing Brazil's aerospace ecosystem.
Boeing's expansion in the South American nation led two domestic defense and aerospace industry groups to sue the U.S. company for hiring local talent, a move they see harming Brazil's industry.
Both groups have Embraer as a member,Boeing defended its move, saying its presence will boost Brazil's aerospace ecosystem.
