RTX Corporation, formerly known as Raytheon Technologies, was established in 2020 through the merger of Raytheon Company and United Technologies Corporation. Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, USA, RTX is a leading aerospace and defense company offering advanced systems and services for commercial, military, and government customers worldwide. The company's portfolio includes aircraft engines, avionics, aerospace structures, cybersecurity solutions, missile defense systems, and space technologies. With a backlog exceeding $200 billion, RTX demonstrates strong demand across its commercial aviation and defense sectors. Committed to innovation and sustainability, RTX invests in developing technologies such as hybrid-electric propulsion to enhance fuel efficiency and reduce environmental impact.
With a combined experience & expertise the new generation of smart munitions for the U.S. Army is significantly more affordable than current fielded systems.
The modernization program advances aircraft performance & safety while also equipping cockpits with technologies to reduce pilot workload, enhance situational awareness, & enable efficiency & capacity improvements.
Using the Lower Tier Air and Missile Defense Sensor, or LTAMDS, Raytheon guides Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) interceptors to defeat cruise and ballistic missile surrogates.
The Advanced Electronic Warfare (ADVEW) prototype for the U.S. Navy's F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet is being developed to replace existing electronic warfare components on the aircraft to improve survivability & long-term sustainability.
RTX will deliver deployable photonic sensors that provide better awareness of environmental elements with greater than ten-times the precision of current sensors and disrupt fields such as LiDAR, navigation and communications and more.
Achieving all objectives, the milestone is the latest in a rigorous U.S. Army test program, advancing towards fielding the 360-degree, full sector capability this year.
GhostEye MR successfully tracked a variety of high-speed targets in maritime environment and demonstrated the successful aim to accelerate development of critical defense capabilities.
The new development involves a new hybrid-electric propulsion system, combining two Collins megawatt-class electric motor generators within a Pratt & Whitney GTF engine that enables safe management of electricity at high altitudes.
Testing requirements against high-speed & maneuvering targets, the systems tested their essential detect & defeat capabilities as part of the LIDS, the Army's go-to counter-drone solution.
