Among the company\u2019s most sophisticated programs is the Patriot missile defense system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RTX stocks fell following Trump\u2019s criticism before trading stopped on Wednesday, but rallied back after the president declared he would ask Congress to approve a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/pentagon-congress\/2026\/01\/07\/trump-proposes-massive-increase-in-2027-defense-spending-to-15t\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/pentagon-congress\/2026\/01\/07\/trump-proposes-massive-increase-in-2027-defense-spending-to-15t\/\">$1.5 trillion military budget in 2027<\/a> \u2014 a $600 billion increase in spending. Trump said the proposal would enable the U.S. to build what he called a \u201cdream military\u201d and be paid for through tariff revenues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI have determined that, for the Good of our Country, especially in these very troubled and dangerous times, our Military Budget for the year 2027 should not be $1 Trillion Dollars, but rather $1.5 Trillion Dollars,\u201d Trump wrote on Truth Social. \u201cThis will allow us to build the \u2018Dream Military\u2019 that we have long been entitled to and, more importantly, that will keep us SAFE and SECURE, regardless of foe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump\u2019s push for a boost in defense spending comes as the U.S. enters a new era of geopolitical risk. The U.S. on Wednesday <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2026\/01\/07\/us-seizes-2-oil-tankers-linked-to-venezuela\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2026\/01\/07\/us-seizes-2-oil-tankers-linked-to-venezuela\/\">seized a Russian-flagged oil tanker in the North Atlantic<\/a> while another ship was apprehended near the Caribbean. It came days after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2026\/01\/06\/this-was-surgical-the-tactics-behind-the-maduro-mission\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2026\/01\/06\/this-was-surgical-the-tactics-behind-the-maduro-mission\/\">U.S. forces completed a raid in Caracas<\/a> that resulted in the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicol\u00e1s Maduro and his wife. The Trump administration also revived its plan to acquire Greenland this week. The White House told Military Times all options, including the use of force, are on the table for the Arctic island.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Trump said he would
