Target: Raytheon Technologies / RTX Corporation Domain: Digital - Digital Forensics Research date: 25 October 2026 Evidence period: Historical records through October 2026
Enterprise Technology Stack & Vendor Relationships
Corporate structure and technology-supply-chain scope
RTX Corporation’s current principal businesses are Raytheon, Collins Aerospace and Pratt & Whitney; the historical Raytheon Technologies name therefore encompasses both defence and commercial aerospace operations within the current consolidated group.1
RTX’s 2025 Form 10-K reports approximately $88.6 billion in consolidated annual sales and describes the group’s aerospace and defence businesses, international operations and dependence on supplier relationships.2
Israeli-origin software and enterprise services
No public evidence identified establishing a current RTX enterprise licensing, subscription or deployment relationship with Check Point, CyberArk, Wiz, SentinelOne, Claroty, NICE, Verint or Palo Alto Networks.
No public evidence identified establishing that Israeli-origin enterprise software is embedded in RTX’s primary internal network-security, identity-management, endpoint-protection, customer-analytics or communications infrastructure.
Verified Israeli technology supplier and industrial relationship
RTX publicly identifies Rafael Advanced Defense Systems as its partner in Iron Dome and the related SkyHunter system, including a US manufacturing supply chain for interceptor components; the disclosed partnership concerns missile-defence technology and manufacturing rather than an identified enterprise cybersecurity subscription.3
RTX’s September 2025 Form 10-Q states that its defence programmes continued receiving components from Israel without material disruption, directly confirming an Israeli supply-chain dependency during 2025.4
RTX’s November 2025 announcement identifies Raytheon-Rafael Protection Systems as the joint venture receiving a $1.25 billion direct-commercial-sales contract for missiles, missile kits and test equipment intended for Israel.5
Scale and purpose of the relationship
RTX’s October 2026 statement records initial Tamir interceptor deliveries from the R2S Camden, Arkansas manufacturing facility and describes planned production growth to meet US and Israeli demand; the facility represents substantial manufacturing integration rather than evidence of dependence on a named Israeli enterprise software vendor.6
Procurement and systems integrators
RTX’s supplier information describes a global supplier-management framework and cybersecurity requirements affecting suppliers, including suppliers handling sensitive defence information.7
No public evidence identified that an identified RTX systems integrator mandated or deployed Check Point, Wiz, CyberArk, SentinelOne, NICE, Verint or another Israeli-origin software platform in a major RTX enterprise transformation programme.
No public evidence identified quantifying RTX’s expenditure on Israeli-origin enterprise software.
Surveillance, Biometrics & Retail Technology
Facial recognition and commercial biometrics
No public evidence identified establishing RTX’s deployment of Trigo, BriefCam, AnyVision/Oosto, Trax or another named Israeli-origin facial-recognition or retail-analytics product.
No public evidence identified of Israeli-origin biometric technology being used by RTX for retail loss prevention, frictionless checkout, store analytics or workforce identification.
Surveillance technology in the broader corporate portfolio
AFSC Investigate identifies RTX as a defence and surveillance-technology supplier and states that its surveillance technology has been used in monitoring along the United States–Mexico border; the publicly reviewed AFSC material does not establish that the relevant technology originated from an Israeli vendor.8
Predictive analytics and monitoring
No public evidence identified linking RTX’s internal operations to an Israeli-origin predictive-policing, sentiment-analysis, social-media-monitoring or workforce-surveillance platform.
No public evidence identified linking RTX to an Israeli-origin system for automated monitoring of Palestinian civilian communications or biometric records.
Third-party deployments
No public evidence identified establishing indirect RTX deployment of Israeli-origin biometric or surveillance software through managed security providers, outsourced IT platforms or bundled enterprise applications.
Technology boundary
RTX’s February 2026 DARPA announcement describes a maritime sensing programme involving electro-optical/infrared sensors, detection software and command-and-control capabilities; the announced customer is a US defence research agency, and the announcement does not identify an Israeli customer or Israeli-origin supplier.9
Cloud Infrastructure, Data Residency & Sovereign Cloud Participation
Operations and physical infrastructure
RTX’s June 2025 Form 10-Q expressly states that its commercial manufacturing facilities in Israel remained open and operational during the period covered by the filing.10
RTX’s September 2026 Form 10-Q records continuing employees, facilities and operations in the Middle East and monitoring of regional instability, but does not provide a named Israeli cloud-computing or data-centre facility in the cited disclosure.11
Israeli data centres
No public evidence identified establishing that RTX owns, leases or operates a data centre or commercial cloud region in Israel.
No public evidence identified identifying an RTX Israeli data-centre location, hosting provider, colocation contract or cloud storage architecture.
Government cloud and Project Nimbus
No public evidence identified establishing RTX participation as a prime contractor, subcontractor, platform provider or software integrator in Project Nimbus.
No public evidence identified establishing a general-purpose RTX cloud-computing, storage or AI-platform contract under another named Israeli government sovereign-cloud programme.
Data sovereignty and resilience
No public evidence identified of an RTX service specifically contracted to provide Israeli state agencies with sovereign-cloud hosting, government data residency or national cloud resilience.
Data-exposure principle
RTX’s public supplier-security documentation confirms that sensitive defence and space information requires cybersecurity safeguards within its supplier ecosystem; it does not identify Israeli hosting, processing or legal access to customer data.7
No public evidence identified establishing that RTX customer communications, personal information, biometric data or behavioural datasets are systematically stored, routed or processed within Israeli-controlled infrastructure.
No public evidence identified establishing that RTX makes a general-purpose customer-data processing platform available to Israeli intelligence authorities.
Commercial service coverage
Pratt & Whitney’s published regional sales directory identifies Israel within its Middle East commercial engine-support coverage; such commercial coverage does not itself establish an Israeli cloud, hosting or personal-data-processing operation.12
Defence, Intelligence & Security Sector Technology Relationships
Israeli military and defence-ministry relationships
RTX’s product documentation identifies Rafael as its partner for Iron Dome, describing a system that detects, assesses and intercepts rockets, artillery and mortar threats through a combination of radar, sensors, launchers and interceptors.3
RTX separately confirms that David’s Sling was co-developed with Rafael, became operational in 2017 and incorporates sophisticated sensors, radar and missile firing units manufactured in part by RTX.13
The Israeli Ministry of Defense announced in October 2026 that the first fully US-manufactured Tamir interceptor had been delivered to its Israel Missile Defense Organization from the Raytheon-Rafael joint venture’s Arkansas facility.14
The November 2025 RTX announcement describes a $1.25 billion R2S contract supplying Israel with Tamir missiles, missile kits and test equipment, confirming a substantial commercial relationship announced after July and November 2024.5
Distinction between digital infrastructure and weapons systems
The documented Iron Dome and David’s Sling capabilities include computational threat assessment, radar processing, guidance and engagement functions embedded in systems designed to intercept airborne threats; these purpose-built weapon-system functions fall principally within the Military boundary.3, 13
No public evidence identified separating out a general-purpose cloud, enterprise data-processing or civilian analytics platform supplied by RTX to Israel under these programmes.
Communications and intelligence platforms
No public evidence identified of a separately contracted RTX general-purpose interception, communications-monitoring or intelligence-data-hosting platform supplied to an Israeli intelligence agency.
No public evidence identified of RTX licensing commercial spyware, zero-day exploit tools or offensive cyber software to Israeli state actors.
Israeli operational support and supply chains
RTX’s June 2025 filing confirms active Israeli manufacturing facilities and its September 2025 filing confirms continuing access to Israeli components for defence programmes.10, 4
Settlement nexus
No public evidence identified establishing deployment of RTX general-purpose digital platforms at an identified Israeli settlement, settlement industrial estate, municipal authority or checkpoint in occupied territory.
No public evidence identified identifying a local reseller, franchisee or licensed technology distributor supplying RTX enterprise digital services to a specific settlement.
Post-July 2024 commercial continuity
RTX’s October 2026 announcement documents continued R2S manufacturing and deliveries, confirming that the Rafael-linked programme remained active after July 2024 and November 2024.6
The Arkansas Economic Development Commission independently reported the October 2026 commencement of Tamir production deliveries at Camden, providing additional confirmation of continuing industrial activity.15
AI, Algorithmic & Autonomous Systems
General-purpose artificial intelligence
RTX’s 2026 proxy statement identifies oversight of corporate AI strategy within the responsibilities of its Governance and Public Policy Committee.16
No public evidence identified establishing a named RTX general-purpose AI or machine-learning platform licensed to an Israeli ministry, intelligence agency or security organisation.
AI and sensor technology
RTX’s February 2026 DARPA announcement identifies development of advanced detection software and command-and-control functions for the Pulling Guard maritime-defence research programme, without identifying an Israeli state customer.9
Training data and civilian information
No public evidence identified establishing that an RTX AI model or general-purpose analytics platform was trained on Palestinian civilian communications, Israeli intelligence intercepts or surveillance-derived population datasets.
No public evidence identified establishing that RTX received an Israeli government civilian-identification dataset for general-purpose AI model development.
Autonomous tracking and lethality
RTX’s Iron Dome documentation describes automatic threat assessment and engagement decisions within a purpose-built interception system.3
RTX’s David’s Sling documentation identifies sensor, radar and guidance functions within a missile-defence system developed with Rafael.13
These documented systems are principally designed for missile defence and weapons engagement and are therefore referred to Military rather than treated as independent Digital evidence of general-purpose AI provision.3, 13
No public evidence identified establishing a separate RTX general-purpose autonomous population-tracking platform supplied to Israeli security bodies.
No public evidence identified of RTX providing a distinct civilian-applicable AI targeting or object-tracking platform to Israeli intelligence organisations.
Technology Ecosystem & R&D Footprint
Israeli manufacturing and technical operations
RTX’s June 2025 quarterly filing confirms that its commercial manufacturing facilities in Israel were operational during that reporting period.10
RTX’s September 2026 quarterly filing continues to describe regional employees, facilities and operations without giving a complete Israel-specific engineering or R&D facility inventory.11
Rafael technology collaboration
RTX identifies David’s Sling as a jointly developed system with Rafael, operational since 2017, involving shared development of the Stunner interceptor and related missile-defence technology.13
RTX identifies its long-standing technical collaboration with Rafael on Iron Dome and SkyHunter, including US production and component-sourcing arrangements.3
Joint-venture investment
RTX’s November 2025 announcement reports a $33 million capital investment associated with establishment of the East Camden R2S manufacturing facility and describes the plant’s role in meeting Israeli demand for Tamir interceptors.5
The Arkansas Economic Development Commission’s October 2026 announcement reports a $63 million facility capital-investment figure and up to 60 anticipated regional jobs; the state announcement and RTX’s earlier announcement therefore use different investment figures that should be retained with their respective dates and stated scopes.15, 5
Israeli R&D centres
No public evidence identified establishing the exact address, staffing level or current research specialisation of a standalone RTX corporate AI, cloud or cybersecurity R&D laboratory in Israel.
No public evidence identified establishing a named RTX accelerator programme dedicated to Israeli cybersecurity or surveillance startups.
Israeli technology acquisitions and investments
No public evidence identified establishing an RTX acquisition of Check Point, Wiz, CyberArk, SentinelOne, NICE, Verint, Claroty or a comparable Israeli-origin enterprise cybersecurity company.
The Raytheon-Rafael collaboration and R2S joint venture are documented industrial and technology-development relationships; they do not establish an acquisition of Rafael by RTX.5
No public evidence identified of a separately disclosed RTX strategic investment in an Israeli surveillance, spyware or commercial AI venture fund.
Patents and intellectual property
No public evidence identified establishing a specific RTX patent assignment, commercial software licence or general-purpose AI co-development agreement with Technion, Hebrew University or the Weizmann Institute.
Corporate governance and controlling principals
RTX identifies Christopher T. Calio as its current Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.17
The company’s February 2025 announcement records Calio’s election as Chairman effective April 30, 2025, following Gregory J. Hayes’s departure from the executive chairmanship.18
RTX’s 2026 proxy identifies Fredric G. Reynolds as Independent Lead Director and provides its current board-governance structure.16
No public evidence identified establishing a personal controlling equity stake by Calio, Hayes, Reynolds or another identified RTX controlling principal in a named Israeli spyware, surveillance, cybersecurity, SIGINT or military-AI company.
No public evidence identified establishing that a named RTX director’s personal investment vehicle controls NSO Group, Cellebrite, Carbyne, Oosto, Wiz, Check Point, SentinelOne, NICE or Verint.
Civil Society Scrutiny & Regulatory History
Specialist civil-society investigation
AFSC Investigate maintains an RTX company profile within its divestment research and identifies the company’s defence and surveillance activities as grounds for scrutiny.8
AFSC’s historical account includes university divestment initiatives involving Raytheon at institutions including UC Irvine, UCLA and UC Davis during 2005–2015; the cited campaigns principally concerned weapons and military relationships rather than a verified Israeli-origin enterprise software contract.8
AFSC also lists RTX among companies it identifies as relevant to its military and occupation-related divestment research.19
Boycott and divestment campaigns
AFSC’s company profile reports a November 2014 UCLA student divestment resolution and a January 2015 UC Davis student-senate resolution concerning Raytheon; these are historical campaigns and their underlying events are marked [pre-2020].8
No public evidence identified establishing an RTX corporate response specifically addressing the technology-provision grounds of those historical resolutions.
No public evidence identified of a distinct campaign based on proven RTX procurement of Israeli enterprise cybersecurity or biometric-surveillance software.
Regulatory and export-control history
RTX’s September 2025 Form 10-Q describes an August 29, 2024 consent agreement with the US Department of State resolving certain Arms Export Control Act and International Traffic in Arms Regulations compliance matters, with a $200 million civil penalty of which $100 million was conditionally suspended for approved remediation.4
The filing describes the relevant disclosures as primarily connected with integration of Rockwell Collins and, to a lesser extent, Raytheon Company; the cited material does not identify the proceedings as specifically involving transfers to Israel.4
RTX’s 2025 Form 10-K also discusses previously disclosed US criminal and civil resolutions concerning certain Middle East contracts involving Raytheon Company and Thales-Raytheon Systems; the disclosure does not, by itself, establish an Israeli digital-technology procurement or surveillance contract.2
No public evidence identified establishing an Israel-specific export-control sanction, regulatory proceeding or judicial finding concerning RTX’s provision of general-purpose cloud, commercial surveillance, biometric or enterprise AI software.
UN and international reporting
No verified RTX-specific digital-technology finding was established from the accessible materials reviewed for the OHCHR settlement-business database or UN Special Rapporteur report A/HRC/59/23.
Continuing publicly documented activity
RTX’s September 2026 Form 10-Q describes continued regional business operations, and its October 2026 announcement confirms continued Raytheon-Rafael industrial cooperation and Tamir deliveries.11, 6
No public evidence identified establishing that these disclosures constitute a judicial or regulatory determination concerning compliance with the July 2024 ICJ advisory opinion or November 2024 ICC arrest warrants.
