Form 10-K: For the fiscal year ended January 2, 2010

Dear Mr. Shenk:

This letter is in reference to your letter dated September 13, 2010 containing comments of the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance on the Form 10-K and Form 10-Q of Textron Inc. (the “Company”) described above.

Pursuant to my telephone call on September 16 with Jeffrey Sears of your office, due to a lengthy international business trip being undertaken by the Company’s management during the latter half of September, the Company requires additional time to respond fully to the comments and has therefore requested an extension of time to respond. I am confirming that, in accordance with my discussion with Mr. Sears, the Company anticipates responding to the comments contained in the September 13 letter on or before October 19, 2010.

If you have any questions, please call me at (401)752-5187.

Sincerely,
 
/s/ Jayne M. Donegan  
Jayne M. Donegan 
Senior Associate General Counsel
