Nov 30 (Reuters) - Industrial conglomerate General Electric Co (GE.N) and defense contractor L3Harris Technologies Inc (LHX.N) are among those competing to acquire rocket maker Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings Inc (AJRD.N), according to people familiar with the matter. Aircraft producer Textron Inc (TXT.N) and private equity firm Veritas Capital are also vying to acquire El Segundo, California-based Aerojet, which has a market value of about $4 billion, the sources said. Aerojet has been running a process to sell itself after its $4.4 billion sale to Lockheed Martin Corp (LMT.N) was thwarted by antitrust regulators in February, Reuters has previously reported. Spokespeople for Aerojet, General Electric, Textron and Veritas Capital did not respond to requests for comment. Its customers include the Pentagon, Boeing (BA.N), Lockheed Martin and Raytheon Technologies Corp (RTX.N).
