RTX: Connecting and protecting our world
Every day, more than 185,000 employees across our company and its three businesses – Collins Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney and Raytheon – work as one to answer the biggest questions and solve the hardest problems in aerospace and defense. To put their work in perspective:
≈50%
of the world’s population is protected by our defense products
90%
of all Department of Defense and commercial space launches are supported by our products
11 million
air travel passengers are supported every day by our safe and efficient aviation systems
1 billion
gallons of fuel have been saved by our increasingly efficient aircraft engines
70%
of the airborne communications for the U.S. and allied nations are supported by our technology
Asking better questions unlocks the power of innovation for the advancement of bold new technologies that are redefining the future of aerospace and creating next-level defense solutions.

How will sustainable become the standard?
Reducing CO2 emissions is more than our priority – it’s our passion. That’s why we’re reinventing aviation with more efficient engines and hybrid electric propulsion. It’s part of our commitment to meet net-zero emissions and safeguard our environment.
How can you own the sky before ever leaving ground?
Now more than ever, RTX is ready to tackle tomorrow’s challenges and drive aerospace and defense forward. We are ensuring the United States and allies have the most advanced air-to-air missile capabilities to counter peer threats at extended range in an increasingly complex world.
How can data be the difference?
In aviation, data is everywhere – from passengers tapping their phones to radars watching the weather. We bring all that data together to deliver insights that make flight, safer, smarter and more sustainable.
How will multiple domains act as one?
We create breakthroughs that protect and connect our world – from seabed to space, and everywhere in between.
At RTX, we're a diverse team of explorers united in our goal to push the boundaries of known science – and solve the world's most complex problems.
We design. We engineer. We code. We research. We patent. We test. We learn. We iterate. We manufacture. We produce.
We are advancing aviation, building smarter defense systems and creating innovations to take us deeper into space. Progress is not inevitable. It is initiated – by tirelessly asking the hard questions and finding answers.
Progress defines the future and defines us – because the progress we make matters.
