In April, 2020 the Pentagon named Raytheon in Tucson as the sole-source contractor for a multi-billion dollar program to develop and produce the Long-Range Stand-Off (LRSO) missile, an all-new nuclear-armed cruise missile to be launched from the wings of warplanes. Production of this missile violates the spirit and letter of the 2017 United Nations Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, which entered into force in January 2021.
Raytheon is the most profitable division of the corporate war profiteer Raytheon Technologies, RTX.com. With its top management and largest factory in Tucson, Raytheon has more than 13,000 employees in southern Arizona.
