The Trump administration has initiated a Section 232 national security investigation into imported commercial aircraft, jet engines, and parts. This probe aims to determine whether these imports pose a threat to U.S. national security and could lead to the imposition of additional tariffs on the commercial aerospace sector. The investigation, announced by the U.S.

Department of Commerce and registered in the Federal Register, includes imports from major markets such as the European Union, the United Kingdom, and Japan. The potential tariffs could impact Japanese manufacturers, including Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, which export aircraft components to the U.S. The probe follows ongoing trade negotiations between the U.S. and Japan concerning tariffs and trade measures. If the investigation concludes that these imports threaten national security, President Trump may authorize new tariffs on these products, further affecting the global aerospace supply chain and trade relations.
