Over the past six months RTX shares have risen 30.2%, outperforming the aerospace and defense sector. This gain reflects a series of major contract awards and expanded airline orders. Analysts have lifted their 2026 earnings estimates by an average of 7%, forecasting adjusted EPS of $7.25, up from $6.78 at the start of the period. Revenue guidance for 2026 remains above $92 billion, supported by a robust $85 billion backlog in defense programs and a growing aftermarket services segment that accounted for 42% of 2025 sales.

Raytheon, an RTX business, secured five framework agreements with the U.S. Department of War to boost annual production of critical precision munitions. Under up-to-seven-year deals, Tomahawk cruise missile output will exceed 1,000 units, AMRAAM air-to-air missile builds will reach at least 1,900 per year, and SM-6 production will top 500. Production rates for SM-3 Block IB and Block IIA interceptors are set to accelerate by two to four times, strengthening the defense industrial base and preserving free cash flow through a collaborative funding model.

RTX’s Commercial Engines and Collins Aerospace divisions landed multiple agreements at the Singapore Air Show. Pratt & Whitney inked a 12-year maintenance deal covering 44 additional GTF-powered A320neo family jets for Vietjet, bringing the airline’s GTF backlog to 137 aircraft. Pratt & Whitney Canada signed a 15-year APS5000 APU maintenance contract with Scoot, covering 24 units on 787 Dreamliners. Collins Aerospace extended FlightSense™ support with Singapore Airlines for 27 Boeing 777 and 777F aircraft over five years and renewed two contracts with All Nippon Airways for engine accessories and power-and-controls MRO services. These aftermarket agreements are expected to contribute over $1.1 billion in revenue through 2031.
