The analyses
The Adjacency Expansion · Growth & Portfolio
Raytheon's Boldest Expansion Was Actually a Retreat to Its Core
The 2020 merger that created RTX is sold as Raytheon leaping into new adjacencies. Read the filings: it was a legal merger of equals worth ~$74 billion in sales, and both sides spent decades shedding everything that wasn't aerospace and defense to get there.

United Technologies and Raytheon merged in 2020 in what both sides called a 'merger of equals.' UTC shareowners got ~57%, eight of fifteen board seats, and were the legal survivor. The label was optics. The deal was a defensive hedge — and it closed the week COVID gutted aviation.

RTX Has a $268 Billion Backlog. About a Quarter of It Is Next Year's Revenue.
RTX's backlog hit $268B at the end of 2025, and the story sells itself as locked-in defense visibility. But the company's own 10-K says only ~25% converts to revenue within 12 months — and most of the backlog isn't even defense.

The Crisis Response · Crisis & Reinvention

A powder-metal flaw grounded hundreds of Pratt & Whitney jets. RTX disclosed the damage in two tranches across seven weeks, booked a $2.9B charge as an 83% sales collapse at Pratt - and still raised buybacks to $10B.
