RTX Corporation (ISIN US75513E1010) had its Raytheon business awarded a naval radar development contract on October 12, 2026, while RTX Corporation stock traded at EUR 167.13 at Lang & Schwarz at 12:29 p.m. CEST, 0.28 percent below the Xetra close of EUR 167.60. The contract supports software upgrades for the SPY-6 radar family and future naval radars.
Raytheon extends radar work
According to RTX on October 12, 2026, the Office of Naval Research awarded Raytheon a contract to develop target-detection capabilities for naval radar systems. The work covers signal and data-processing algorithms plus software upgrades intended to extend detection range, increase sensitivity and improve radar efficiency.
The program will undergo laboratory and field testing before potential integration into SPY-6 and other future naval radars. The work is planned at facilities in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, and Andover, Massachusetts, through 2031, giving the announcement a multi-year operating horizon even though the contract value was not disclosed.
Three dated RTX milestones
RTX reported USD 24.71 billion of revenue in the second quarter of 2026, up 14.50 percent year over year, according to MarketBeat. On October 2, 2026, Raytheon secured a USD 511.50 million modification for AN/SPY-6 radar hardware and spares, as reported by el fondo.
The October 12 radar announcement adds a separate technology-development program to that defense activity. For investors, the key distinction is that the release describes capability development and testing rather than a disclosed revenue award, so the financial impact cannot be quantified from the announcement.
What comes next for earnings?
MarketBeat identifies October 20, 2026, as RTX's next reporting date and cites consensus revenue of USD 24.05 billion and earnings of USD 1.77 per share for the third quarter of 2026. The same source says RTX's fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings-per-share guidance is USD 7.10-7.25.
