Wrong...All the part will be produced in California. This is what was reported on the news here several times the past few days.

They even gave the number of jobs this will create for California, 4,500 in LA County alone 3,000 other jobs in other areas of the state.

With Northrop based in California, this means 7,500 jobs for California, which will be producing all the parts for these aircraft.

Northrop Grumman’s KC-30 Tanker Team Will Support 7,500 California Jobs and Generate Economic Activity Exceeding $360 Million Annually

It appears that this will create a few thousands more jobs in California, than in Alabama.
