Raytheon

RTX Corp., the parent company of Raytheon, agreed to pay $200 million in fines and remediation to address hundreds of export control violations that led to the disclosure of sensitive military secrets.

The consent agreement between RTX and the State Department, published Friday, resolves 750 violations of the Arms Export Control Act (AECA) and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) by Raytheon and several subsidiaries that occurred from 2017-23.

RTX self-disclosed the violations, cooperated with the investigation, and implemented “numerous” compliance remediations to address many of the issues uncovered during the investigation, the State Department said in a press release. As part of its remediation plan, RTX will hire a special compliance officer to oversee the consent agreement.
