RTX subsidiary lands $578.6M Army contract
Raytheon to procure Stinger missiles
Josh Janney //September 25, 2025//
Raytheon, a subsidiary of Arlington County-based Fortune 500 aerospace and defense contractor RTX, has been awarded a $578.63 million U.S. Army contract to procure Stinger missiles, ancillary equipment and related support.
The Department of Defense (recently rebranded by the Trump administration as the Department of War) said that the contract was solicited online, and that one bid was received. The DOD estimates the contract will be completed by Sept. 29, 2031.
In service since 1981, the Stinger is a portable, shoulder-fired guided-missile system that can be rapidly deployed by ground troops for air defense.
RTX has more than 185,000 employees globally and reported more than $80.73 billion in 2024 sales. The contractor is the second highest ranked Virginia-based company on the 2025 Fortune 500.
