Lockheed Martin offers a higher dividend yield of 2.63% with 23 years of consecutive increases, compared to RTX's 1.46% yield and shorter dividend history since 2020. However, RTX has a stronger and more diversified backlog, better free cash flow, and less reliance on a few programs, making its dividend more sustainable in the long term. Lockheed is better for investors seeking higher current income, while RTX suits those prioritizing dividend stability and growth over the next decade. Upcoming earnings reports will test if Lockheed can improve its cash flow to match RTX's strength.
