Raytheon Technologies, now known as RTX following a rebranding effort, will move about 4,700 positions and work related to Joint All-Domain Command and Control to Collins Aerospace, effective July 1, as part of a business realignment initiative, C4ISRNET reported Monday.
In January, the defense and aerospace contractor announced plans to restructure its four businesses into three focused segments – Collins Aerospace, Pratt & Whitney and Raytheon – to advance the company’s market growth, technology synergies and financial targets.
Collins Aerospace, which will absorb approximately $2.7 billion in business, will integrate work related to autonomous systems, C2, battle management, protected communications and networking and connectivity from RTX’s intelligence and space and missiles and defense divisions.
Steve Timm, president of Collins Aerospace, told the publication the realignment will leverage the company’s expertise in military and commercial areas to build new technologies aimed at advancing JADC2.
Aviation International News reported that Collins Aerospace will also absorb and integrate the intelligence and space’s civil traffic systems business into its connected aviation solutions division, which aims to drive growth in the air traffic management area.
