Bell Textron Inc. is ready to take off in north Fort Worth with an investment of $632 million in a new factory for a next-generation aircraft. Gov. Greg Abbott, Mayor Mattie Parker, Bell CEO Lisa Atherton and other area leaders joined together on Dec. 17 at the Bell Manufacturing Technology Center in north Fort Worth to announce final plans to open a new manufacturing plant in the Alliance area to build the Future Long Range Assault Aircraft, or FLRAA. “This project is obviously transformational for Tarrant County ... as well as in Denton County,” said Abbott. “But also it’s transformative for the future of the state of Texas, our workforce, but maybe most importantly, it’s transformative for our United States military.” The project is expected to create 520 full-time jobs with an average annual salary of $85,000 by the end of 2039. Bell won the FLRAA contract in 2022. At the time, military officials said the contract was worth $1.3 billion but could end up being worth in the range of $70 billion over the long term. “It’s kind of a big deal when you have an opportunity of that size come around,” Atherton said.

Beach St., near AllianceTexas. In an application for state incentives filed in February, Bell said it planned to expand the building by 5,400 square feet. The Fort Worth City Council approved over $47 million in incentives on Dec. 10. Bell applied for tax breaks through the state via the Jobs, Energy, Technology and Innovation Act program, or JETI, the program that replaced a previous state incentive program. The Bell announcement was the first use of the new JETI program. Parker said the announcement is key to the city’s future as a leader in aerospace manufacturing and defense. “We need to continue to strive to do this,” she said. “It takes programs like this to continue to push forward.” The Bell plan also had to be approved by Denton County Commissioners Court and the Northwest Independent School District. Representatives from both parties were also on hand for the announcement. “This is monumental for us,” said Steve Montgomery, president and CEO of the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce. “Just think of the employment and the long-term investment this represents for generations to come. Monumental is probably the only word that fits.” Bell, headquartered in Fort Worth, currently employs more than 4,000 people. In March, the company opened a $20 million test lab in Arlington dedicated to testing parts for its future helicopters. Bob Francis is business editor for the Fort Worth Report.

Grand Opening of the Rees Jones "Woods" golf course announced at Boca Woods Country ClubFrance (30) 37 Tries: Flament, Villiere, Penalty, Bielle-Biarrey Cons: Ramos 3 Pen: Ramos 3 Argentina (9) 23 Try: Gallo, Ruiz Con: Albornoz 2 Pen: Albornoz 3 France avenged their summer defeat by Argentina with a comfortable victory in Paris to maintain their winning run in the Autumn Nations Series. Thibaud Flament powered over from close range to hand the hosts an early lead but the boot of Tomas Albornoz kept the Pumas in touching distance. Gabin Villiere finished off a flowing French move for their second try before Juan Martin Gonzalez was sent to the sin bin for deliberately knocking on the ball with Louis Bielle-Biarrey poised to score a third. France were not to be denied, however, and they were awarded a penalty try before reaching the interval at Stade de France with a healthy 30-9 lead. The Pumas, who were narrowly edged out by Ireland in their last outing, recovered after the break and were held up over the line before Thomas Gallo crossed for their opening try. Bielle-Biarrey showed his class at the other end to latch onto his own kick through and score his 10th Test try in 14 appearances to restore France's advantage. Argentina remained resolute and Ignacio Ruiz came off the bench to score a powerful consolation but France claimed their sixth win in their past seven meetings against the South American side. Les Bleus, who last suffered defeat in July when they were beaten 33-25 by Argentina in Buenos Aires, have won all three autumn games after victories over Japan and New Zealand. Speaking to TNT Sports, France lock Emmanuel Meafou said: "We knew it was going to be an 80-minute game. We saw last week how Argentina went all the way against a good Irish team. "We are happy with the win. We have three from three [in the autumn] and we will look to build on that in the Six Nations next year." France: Barre; Villiere, Fickou, Moefana, Bielle-Biarrey; Ramos, Dupont; Gros, Mauvaka, Atonio, Flament, Meafou, Cros, Boudehent, Ollivon. Replacements: Marchand, Wardi, Colombe, Roumat, Guillard, Gazzotti, Le Garrec, Gailleton. Argentina: Mallia; Isgro, Cinti, Moroni, Delguy; Albornoz, Garcia; Gallo, Montoya, Sclavi, Petti, Rubiolo, Matera, Gonzalez, Oviedo. Replacements: Ruiz, Calles, Kodela, Molina, Kremer, Velez, S Carreras, M Carreras.

The RCMP will create a new aerial intelligence task force to provide round-the-clock surveillance of Canada’s border using helicopters, drones and surveillance towers. The move is part of the federal government’s $1.3-billion upgrade to border security and monitoring to appease concerns of U.S. president-elect Donald Trump about the flow of migrants and illegal drugs. Trump has threatened to impose a 25 per cent tariff on all Canadian and Mexican exports to the U.S. as soon as he is inaugurated next month unless both countries move to improve border security. Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc says he has discussed parts of the plan with American officials and that he is optimistic about its reception. Canada will also propose to the United States to create a North American “joint strike force” to target organized crime groups that work across borders. The government also intends to provide new technology, tools and resources to the Canada Border Services Agency to seek out fentanyl using chemical detection, artificial intelligence and canine teams. The union representing rank-and-file Mounties is welcoming the federal plan unveiled in the fall economic update Monday. Money, to be spread over six fiscal years, is earmarked for the RCMP, Public Safety Canada, the Canada Border Services Agency and the cyberspies at the Communications Security Establishment. RCMP members enforce laws between official points of entry and investigate criminal activities related to the border. National Police Federation president Brian Sauvé says members have been protecting the border with limited resources, and the new money will allow them to continue delivering on their mandate. Aaron McCrorie, the border services agency’s vice-president of intelligence and enforcement, said in a recent interview that irregular migration and smuggling of drugs such as fentanyl are common concerns for Canada and the United States. “These aren’t concerns that are unique to the United States. We share those same concerns,” he said. “In that sense, it really speaks to the need for us to work collaboratively.” McCrorie said the Canadian border agency is working closely with U.S. counterparts including Customs and Border Protection, the Drug Enforcement Administration and Homeland Security, as well as with agencies in Britain, Australia and New Zealand. “Criminal enterprises, organized crime, they don’t respect international boundaries. They collaborate, they exploit weaknesses in the system,” McCrorie said. “And so the best way to confront them is to is to collaborate on our side, fill those gaps, support each other’s efforts.” He said Canada’s border agency has two targeting officers embedded with U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and the American agency plans to soon send a targeting officer to Canada.
