Guess where they get magnetrones for their microwaves. :)
We have all that here, in Russia - Bosch, Electrolux, Whirpool, Indesit, whatever. All critical parts are from China. Some cases made locally. Funny, that we have local manufacturing of fridge compressors which is relatively high-tech, so there exist local fridge brands, but we don't have manufacturing of small and much simplirer water pumps for washing machines or magnetrones for microwaves.
Airbus is hosed anyway, and that just from Brexit.
Do not underestimate Airbus. They are fine planes and have better accident records than Boeing. French will try to keep them at any cost. Meanwhile more than half of titanium and who knows how many aluminium Airbus sourced from Russia. Also, some components was produced on Russian plane enterprises. Fuel tanks and wings frame parts IIRC. Also they set a goal to restore production at level of 2019 to the 2023-2025. So they will fuck UK if necessary. Wings UK made for Airbus is not something that couldn't be made elsewhere.
I think it will be a disater for France if they fail to keep Airbus running.
