Raytheon Intelligence & Space (RIS) was one of the four business segments of U.S. defense and aerospace conglomerate RTX Corporation.[5] Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, RIS has a total employment of 39,000 and 2019 sales of US$15 billion. Roy Azevedo is the segment's president.[6]

Raytheon Intelligence & Space is the result of a merger between two former Raytheon Company businesses: Raytheon Intelligence, Information and Services (IIS) and Raytheon Space and Airborne Systems (SAS). The merger was finalized on the day that Raytheon Technologies was formed, on 3 April 2020.

Raytheon Technologies completed its acquisition of satellite manufacturer Blue Canyon Technologies of Boulder, Colorado on 22 December 2020.[7]

Raytheon Intelligence & Space was merged with Raytheon Missiles & Defense in July 2023 to form the Raytheon business segment.[8]
