What believers are saying

  • RTX raised 2026 guidance after Q2 sales reached $24.7 billion and EPS hit $1.89.
  • Raytheon's 2026 framework agreements target annual output above 1,000 Tomahawks and 500 SM-6s.
  • GTF Advantage certification and Airbus deliveries extend Pratt & Whitney's recovery into 2026.

What critics are saying

  • Pratt & Whitney's GTF powder-metal issue still drives inspections, grounded jets, and lawsuits.
  • SEC subpoenas and DOJ agreements keep Raytheon's legacy conduct under active scrutiny.
  • Persistent GTF failures or fixed-price overruns can erase cash flow and damage airline trust.

What makes RTX unique

  • RTX pairs $289 billion backlog with balanced defense and commercial aerospace exposure.
  • Raytheon wins $24.4 billion SM-6 and $22.9 billion Tomahawk production contracts.
  • Pratt & Whitney and Collins feed recurring aftermarket revenue across Airbus and military fleets.

Raytheon wins $729M counter-drone deal for US Army, Qatar and Jordan

Raytheon, an RTX business, has won $729 million in contracts to supply parts of its LIDS counter-drone system to the US Army, Qatar, and Jordan. The deal includes fixed-site and mobile configurations. LIDS, or the Low, slow, small, unmanned aircraft Integrated Defeat System, uses Raytheon's Ku-band Radio Frequency Sensor (KuRFS) and the Coyote effector. The deal marks the first international sales of both. KuRFS offers 360-degree threat detection. Coyote effectors defeat single drones and swarms. Raytheon is expanding Coyote production to meet rising global demand. Planned upgrades include faster launch times, higher speeds, and greater range at higher altitudes. "LIDS provides a proven and cost-effective layer of defense," said Tom Laliberty, president of Land and Air Defense Systems at Raytheon.
