Thanks for posting the article. Very cool stuff. It is nice to see the future of aircraft and what the next generations will be flying.

One thing that strike me about the photos is how many sub assemblies are manufactured outside the US. After all the noise that Boeing made over the tanker contract going to Airbus based on the "made in the USA" argument I thought this was ironic.

I wouldn't consider pictures an update. I'd just call them pictures. I think your title was misleading
