Originally founded in 1922 as the American Appliance Company, it changed its name to Raytheon in 1925. Since then, the company has grown in size and scope, expanding from its initial offerings of household appliances into the defense and aerospace sectors. By the second half of the 20th century, Raytheon had become a global leader in the defense and aerospace industries, manufacturing products such as ballistic and guided missiles, radars, torpedoes, and air defense systems. In 2020, Raytheon merged with United Technologies Corporation, forming Raytheon Technologies Corporation, the world’s third-largest aerospace and defense company. The merger brought a wealth of new innovations and capabilities to Raytheon, ranging from advanced jet engines and space technology to aviation systems and customer services.
