The added capacity supports recently announced U.S. government framework agreements to speed deliveries of critical munitions.

  • RTX says the expansion grows its Alabama workforce to over 2,200 employees.
  • Company leaders describe the upgrade as enabling faster missile deliveries and strengthening the nation’s defense posture.
  • The Redstone site, opened in 2012, is a key hub for integrating nine Standard Missile variants and other advanced weapons.
  • Production tied to the new framework agreements will be carried out at Raytheon facilities in Tucson, Huntsville, and Andover.
