Raytheon Technologies has more than 100 employees local to the Republic of Korea and continues to invest in its presence there, particularly in defense. Collins Aerospace has successfully supported many of the Korean indigenous aircraft programs including the T-50 Golden Eagle, the Korean Utility Helicopter (KUH-1), and the KF-21 fighter jet through the integration of mission-critical equipment and systems. Additionally, Pratt & Whitney powers many of the aircraft in the Republic of Korea Air Force's fighter fleet, including the F-15, F-16, and F-35.
"We will continue to serve the requirements of our aerospace and defense customers in the Republic of Korea and remain committed to growing our presence in the market," Chun said.
Raytheon Intelligence & Space, another Raytheon Technologies business, has about 70 employees in the ROK. Nearly half the 25 major programs in the business' five-year plan are tied to the Indo-Pacific region.
