RTX CORPORATION

Three detectors fired for RTX Corporation. Benford's Law analysis found the leading-digit distribution of award amounts significantly deviates from expected natural frequencies, with digit 1 appearing in only 20.8 percent of transactions versus the expected 30.1 percent. A modification-growth detector identified one parent contract that experienced extraordinary dollar expansion relative to peers in guided-missile manufacturing, growing at a ratio 172 times the industry average. An Isolation Forest multivariate analysis flagged the entity as a statistical outlier based on its combined profile of massive total obligated value, high award count, concentration with a single agency, and elevated modification frequency.

The Benford test yielded a Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic of 0.095 with p-value below 1e-15 across 1,968 transactions. The modification-growth z-score reached 16.64 sigma, with contract SPE4AX16D9476 showing a growth ratio of 5,995 compared to the NAICS average of 34.85. The Isolation Forest anomaly score was 0.908 on a 0-to-1 scale. RTX's lifetime obligated total is 45.6 billion dollars across 1,968 awards, all from the Department of Defense.

These statistical signals reflect RTX's position as a dominant prime contractor in aerospace and defense, not necessarily fraud indicators. The Benford deviation and modification patterns are consistent with large, established firms managing complex, long-running programs with frequent adjustments. The single-agency concentration is expected for a major defense industrial base player. The detectors are sensitive to scale and market structure; RTX's size and role in the defense supply chain naturally produce outlier statistics. No evidence of intentional manipulation is present in the data alone.
