Around 3,000 Pratt & Whitney workers in the U.S. have initiated a strike to demand job security and commitment from the company to retain jet engine work in Connecticut, particularly related to Lockheed Martin's F-35 fighters. The strike, which has already lasted a week, raises concerns over potential impacts on the already strained aerospace supply chain as Pratt addresses ongoing production challenges and component flaws. While the company has proposed a wage increase, union representatives argue it does not meet inflation rates and emphasize that the strike duration will depend on management's willingness to negotiate.
