Estimates only. Not financial advice.
Lock-in-now is deterministic (0%). Plans that wait depend on future prices; risk is near-zero when inventory comfortably exceeds the goal. Volatility: each stack's option-implied vol if a ticker is set, otherwise 30%. Lognormal model; real markets have fatter tails.

Raytheon and United Technologies merged in 2020 and renamed the combination RTX in 2023, joining missile and defense electronics with commercial aerospace. Three businesses run underneath: Collins Aerospace for avionics and interiors, Pratt and Whitney for engines, and Raytheon for defense. That mix balances government contracts against commercial air traffic, so results track both defense budgets and airline flying hours. A 2023 powder-metal contamination issue in Pratt geared turbofan engines forced extended inspections and a large charge. Headquarters are in Arlington, Virginia.

Equity comp at RTX
- RSUs use single-trigger vesting: shares become yours as each portion vests on schedule, and the value is taxed as ordinary income at that point. No IPO or acquisition is required.

If you hold vested RTX (RTX) shares and need a set amount of cash by a date (a house down payment, tuition, a sabbatical, a business buy-in), the question is which lots to sell and in which tax years to keep the most after tax. This calculator builds the minimum-tax sell schedule across your lots, accounting for federal long-term capital gains, the net investment income tax, and your state.

RTX equity questions
- How much RTX stock do I sell to fund a goal without overpaying tax?
- It depends on your cost basis, your target amount and date, and how the sale spreads across tax years. Selling vested RTX shares triggers long-term capital-gains tax, plus the 3.8% net investment income tax and state tax above certain income, and bunching a large sale into one year can push the gain into a higher bracket. The calculator above builds the minimum-tax sell schedule across your lots to net your target amount by your date.
- Does RTX grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
- Equity compensation at RTX typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
- Do RTX RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
- No. RTX restricted stock units (RSUs) use single-trigger vesting: each tranche becomes yours as it vests on schedule, taxed as ordinary income at that point, with no liquidity event required.
