Boeing Defense, Space & Security's fourth-quarter revenue rose 6 percent to $8.5 billion on increased military aircraft deliveries and higher volume in services.  Operating margins were 9.7 percent reflecting strong performance in Boeing Military Aircraft and Global Services & Support partially offset by additional costs on the Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) program which reduced margins by 1.6 points (Table 5).  

For the full year, revenue increased by 5 percent to $33.7 billion on growth in Global Services & Support and Boeing Military Aircraft segments.  Operating earnings grew 2 percent to $3.3 billion, producing operating margins of 9.8 percent.
