That is one more than in the same quarter a year earlier, which sounds unexciting until you look at what is inside the number: the most 737 MAX deliveries Boeing has ever made in the first nine months of a year.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The quarter also gives a rare look at Boeing's defence side, where the KC-46 tanker was the busiest line, and at the stubborn gap with Airbus, which is still delivering and selling more aircraft.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f5f6f8;border-left:4px solid #5C91FF;padding:18px 22px;margin:26px 0\">\r\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 10px;font-weight:700;color:#0d1117;font-size:17px\">Quick Facts: Boeing deliveries, Q3 2026<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"margin:3px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Commercial deliveries Q3:<\/strong> 161 (737: 124, 787: 22, 767: 10, 777: 5)<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"margin:3px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Commercial deliveries, January to September:<\/strong> 475, up 8% on 2025<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"margin:3px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>737 MAX, January to September:<\/strong> 363, a record for the period (prior record: 325 in 2025)<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"margin:3px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>September deliveries:<\/strong> 57<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"margin:3px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Defence deliveries Q3:<\/strong> 33, including 7 KC-46 tankers, 2 F-15s and 2 F\/A-18s<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"margin:3px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Commercial backlog:<\/strong> 6,371 aircraft at the end of September<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"margin:3px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Airbus, January to September:<\/strong> 547 deliveries<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"margin:3px 0;font-size:15px\"><strong>Note:<\/strong> Boeing says figures are not final until its quarterly results are published<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">The 737 Is Carrying the Year<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>Of the 161 commercial jets, 124 were 737s, more than three in every four. According to The Spokesman-Review, Boeing made 363 MAX deliveries from January to September, the highest total for that period since MAX deliveries began in May 2017, and up from 325 a year earlier. Monthly MAX deliveries ran at 42 in June, 39 in July, 41 in August and 43 in September.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The bigger target is production, not deliveries. Since the FAA lifted its cap on MAX production in October 2025, Boeing has raised output from 38 to 42 aircraft a month, and it wants to stabilise at 47. Speaking at a Morgan Stanley conference on 16 September, CEO Kelly Ortberg admitted that is taking longer than planned.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f8f9fa;border-left:4px solid #5C91FF;padding:20px 22px;margin:18px 0 24px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.7;display:flex;gap:20px;align-items:flex-start\"><div><em>&ldquo;We are not stable yet at 47 a month.&rdquo;<\/em><div style=\"margin-top:10px;font-size:14px;color:#555\"><strong>Kelly Ortberg<\/strong> &mdash; President and CEO, Boeing, at Morgan Stanley's industry conference on 16 September 2026 (via The Herald)<\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The widebodies were more uneven.

Boeing needs 126 more deliveries in the fourth quarter to beat its 2025 total of 600.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">The Defence Side: Tankers Lead<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>Boeing's defence unit delivered 33 aircraft and satellites in the quarter. The <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/aircraft\/kc-46-pegasus\/\">KC-46 Pegasus<\/a> tanker delivered 7, taking the year's total to 15. The quarter also included 12 remanufactured and 3 new <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/aircraft\/ah-64-apache\/\">AH-64 Apaches<\/a>, 3 Chinooks, 2 <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/aircraft\/f-15-eagle\/\">F-15s<\/a>, 2 <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/aircraft\/fa-18-super-hornet\/\">F\/A-18s<\/a> and an MH-139 helicopter. No P-8 Poseidons were delivered in the quarter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;width:100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/10\/boeing-kc-46a-pegasus-refuels-f-15-strike-eagle.jpg\" alt=\"Boeing KC-46A Pegasus refuelling an F-15 Strike Eagle\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;max-width:100%;display:block\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">A KC-46A Pegasus refuels an F-15 Strike Eagle test aircraft.

Both manufacturers are up about 8 percent on 2025, so the gap is not closing. On orders, Airbus reported 1,174 gross orders for the year, well ahead of Boeing's 663, although Boeing had a strong September, helped by a 100-jet 737 MAX order from Turkish Airlines.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Boeing's commercial backlog grew to 6,371 aircraft at the end of September. The orders are there. The constraint, as Ortberg's comment shows, is how fast Renton can turn them into aircraft.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0 6px\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WTmFXPY0EGI\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><p style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin:6px 0 24px;font-style:italic\">WIRED's visit to Boeing's Renton factory shows how the 737 assembly line works.
