Ted Colbert, the president and chief executive officer of Boeing Defense, Space & Security (BDS), will be leaving the beleaguered company, Boeing announced Friday.

Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg told employees in a letter that the company's priority "is to restore the trust of our customers and meet the high standards they expect of us to enable their critical missions around the world."

"I want to thank Ted for his 15 years of service at The Boeing Company, supporting our customers, our people and our communities," he said in the letter.
