History
Boeing Defense, Space & Security was headquartered in Greater St. Louis north of St. Louis Lambert International Airport in the northern St. Louis suburb of Berkeley, Missouri, until January 2017, when top executives and support staff were relocated to Arlington, Virginia. There are also significant operations in nearby Missouri communities, such as Hazelwood and St. Charles. It remains one of the largest employers in Greater St. Louis with 13,707 local employees as of 2018.Other major locations of BDS are in California and Washington state. Boeing chose to locate the defense systems offices in the St. Louis area because of the role of the space and aircraft programs of the former McDonnell Douglas location, and bipartisan support from area politicians.

Organization
Boeing BDS was reorganized in June 2018:In November 2022, Boeing consolidated its defense, space and security business from eight divisions into four, according to a company statement. Those reorganized divisions now focus on vertical lift; mobility, surveillance and bombers; air dominance; and space, intelligence and weapons systems, led by Ted Colbert, president and chief executive officer of BDS. This followed the third quarter of 2022 when Boeing's defense business reported losses of US$2.8 billion (KC-46A Pegasus program was around $1.2 billion charge; VC-25B Air Force One was $766 million),
Vertical Lift, led by Vice President and General Manager Mark Cherry – The world's largest provider of military rotorcraft with a diverse portfolio of cargo, tiltrotor, and attack platforms.
Mobility, Surveillance & Bombers, led by Vice President and General Manager Dan Gillian, which includes KC-46, SAOC, E-7, VC-25B, P-8, Bombers, AWACS/AEW&C, 777X components and all executive transport programs.
Air Dominance, led by Vice President and General Manager Steve Nordlund, which includes classified programs; the F/A-18, F-15, T-7, MQ-25 and MQ-28 programs; and the non-space Phantom Works portfolio, including the Virtual Warfare Centers. Nordlund is the senior site executive for the St. Louis region.
Space, Intelligence & Weapon Systems, led by Vice President and General Manager Kay Sears, which includes space exploration and launch programs, satellites, munitions, missiles, weapon system deterrents, maritime undersea, Phantom Works Space and subsidiaries (BI&A, Millennium, Insitu, Liquid Robotics, Spectrolab, Argon and DRT). This includes space exploration and launch programs, satellites and Phantom Works Space.
