Frequently Asked Questions

Revenue growth in the third quarter of 2022 was primarily driven by higher sales in the Collins Aerospace and Pratt & Whitney segments. This was fueled by the recovery in commercial air travel, leading to increased commercial aerospace aftermarket sales, and continued strength in commercial original equipment manufacturer (OEM) sales. Additionally, demand in defense programs contributed positively to the overall revenue.

Despite inflationary pressures and supply chain constraints, RTX reported an increase in operating profit. This was achieved through strong operating performance within its segments, particularly Collins Aerospace and Pratt & Whitney, and a decrease in acquisition accounting adjustments.
