Airbus includes A220 from July 2018. Airbus 2022 uses the reported 661 total, after a two-A350 adjustment connected to aircraft recorded in December 2021 whose transfer was prevented by sanctions; the cited 2021 headline remains 611 as reported. Boeing Commercial Airplanes totals include intercompany deliveries of commercial derivatives; this is not a strict passenger-only or end-airline handover count. Helicopters and the separate defence segments are excluded. No orders, backlog, revenue or safety ranking is inferred. No missing observations, estimates or 2026 partial-year values are included. Intermediate animation and displayed in-between numbers are visual interpolation between annual source observations, not additional deliveries observed in real time.",
