RTX
American aerospace and defense conglomerate (formerly Raytheon Technologies).
RTX (formerly Raytheon Technologies) is an American aerospace and defense conglomerate, one of 12 companies awarded OTA contracts to develop space-based interceptor prototypes for the Golden Dome missile defense architecture, and the producer of Patriot launchers and the PAC-2 Guidance Enhanced Missile-Tactical (GEM-T) interceptor. Following a July 2026 NATO-summit announcement that the US would grant Ukraine a license to manufacture Patriot interceptors, RTX was, alongside Lockheed Martin, in early discussions with the US government on what a Ukrainian production line could look like; as of late July 2026 no site, supply chain, or specific interceptor variant had been decided.
