The restructuring, which is likely to be completed in the first half of 2024, is expected to save nearly $75 million annually, Textron said.
Textron's plan would result in a pre-tax special charge of $115 million to $135 million in the fourth quarter.
The parent of Cessna business jets said charges related to restructuring and impairment would not impact its full-year financial outlook.
