RTX has designated its president and chief executive, Christopher Calio, to succeed Gregory Hayes as chairman of the aerospace and defense company, effective April 30.
RTX on Monday said Hayes, who has been executive chairman since May 2024, is stepping down from the board but will remain employed with the Arlington, Va., company as special adviser to the CEO through Jan. 2, 2026.
Hayes had served as CEO of RTX since the 2020 merger of Raytheon and United Technologies before handing the reins to Calio last year.
