	Lockheed Hits Its Stride
		The Constellation model-049 was tested by Lockheed and the USAF during the war and later became commercially available for postwar intercontinental travel.
		In the mid-1950s, Lockheed was seeking to replace its Super Constellation series with a mid-range airliner, which it did with its four-engine turboprop Model 188 Electra.
		In January 1951, Lockheed reopened a government-built plant at Marietta, Georgia, and the complex was used to build Boeing B-47 Stratojets, C-130 Hercules, and JetStar aircraft.

		At the beginning of World War II, Lockheed, under the guidance of Clarence (Kelly) Johnson, one of the best known American aircraft designers answered a specification for an "interceptor" by submitting the P-38 Lightning fighter plane, a somewhat unorthodox twin-engine, twin-tail design.
		Other designs out of Lockheed included the F-104 Starfighter (late 1950's), the world's first Mach 2 fighter plane, the Constellation and Super Constellation series of propellor transports, the L-1011 TriStar tri-jet transport and the C-5 Galaxy four-engined jet air transport.
		In 1954 the first flight of the Lockheed C-130 Hercules took place, the aircraft is still produced in 2005.

		Lockheed built variants of the T-33 included the AT-33, an armed close air support version delivered to various nations under MAP, and the RT-33, a single seat variant with various reconnaissance sensors in the nose.
		Lockheeds submission was based on a shortened Electra airliner and this aircraft was selected for development in April 1958.
		Lockheed has worked to reduce assembly costs, adopting a modular assembly process, and has also kept pressure on its suppliers (who also have a financial stake in the program through funding the development of their own products for the C-130J) to keep costs down.

	Lockheed and the Future of Warfare
		Lockheed is also building a huge high-altitude airship, 25 times bigger than the Goodyear blimp, intended to help the Pentagon with the unsolved problem of protecting the nation from ballistic missiles.
		Lockheed is also the strongest corporate force driving the Pentagon's plans for ''net-centric warfare'': the big idea of fusing military, intelligence and weapons programs through a new military Internet, called the Global Information Grid, to give American soldiers throughout the world an instant picture of the battlefield around them.
		Today, Lockheed is building weapons so smart that they can change the world by virtue of their precision, he said; they aim to wage war without the death of innocents, without weapons misfiring, without fatal miscalculation.

	Helendale Avionics Facility - Lockheed Martin
		Lockheed first took control of Section 33 August 11, 1979, by means of a lease, with option to buy, from the previous owners, the Seino family.
		Evans apparently was a front for Lockheed in the transaction, and the previous owners may not have known who they were really dealing with.
		The pylon, which was upgraded in May, 1996 with a new, stealthier design (called a "Squareback Superskirt" by Lockheed), has the capability to move the model fore and aft 7' or rotate it 360 degrees, to help clear the opening in the roof of the Upper Chamber.

		One such corporation is Lockheed Martin, the largest manufacturer of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles in the US, with close ties to the Bush administration.
		Working with the Santa Clara District Attorney, Lockheed Martin is seeking an unprecedented legal penalty through the criminal justice system: reimbursement for what the company represents as costs it incurred preparing for the demonstration.
		Though Lockheed claims it spent over $15,000 in security costs, protesters assert that these costs were unnecessary, because prior to the demonstration organizers engaged in a cooperative dialogue with local law enforcement authorities to ensure a non-violent, non-destructive day of protest.

		The labor crisis began at Lockheed Martin on Feb. 27 when rank-and-file Machinists disregarded the recommendation of their negotiating team and, by a 2-to-1 ratio, rejected a tentative three-year deal that would have raised wages 10 percent and granted $1,500 signing bonuses.
		Lockheed says it is bound by the economic terms of the deal because other IAM locals at Lockheed plants in California ratified the agreement, and because it would be unfair to reward Marietta workers for rejecting a tentative agreement against the advice of their leaders.
		Lockheed builds F/A-22 Raptor fighters and C-130J Hercules transports in Marietta, and both programs are facing deep cuts or early cancellation.

		On May 7, 1996, Lockheed sent NSI a letter advising NSI that it was the owner of the SKUNK WORKS mark and requesting that NSI cease registering domain names that referred to or included the names "Skunk Works" or "Skunkworks" or otherwise infringed on Lockheed's mark.
		Assuming Lockheed can establish NSI's role as a tortfeasor jointly and severally liable for infringing Lockheed's SKUNK WORKS mark, the Court holds that the SKUNK WORKS-type registrants are not necessary parties under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure ("Rule") 19(a), and therefore they are not indispensable parties under Rule 19(b).
		Lockheed claims that it provided NSI with a file-stamped copy of the consent judgement and requested that NSI transfer the infringing domain name registrations to Lockheed, but NSI took no action.

	Lockheed SR-71
		Lockheed Aircraft Corporation's subsonic U-2 (see NASM collection) reconnaissance aircraft was an able platform but the U. Air Force recognized that this relatively slow aircraft was already vulnerable to Soviet interceptors.
		Lockheed's clandestine 'Skunk Works' division (headed by the gifted design engineer Clarence L. "Kelly" Johnson) designed the A-12 to cruise at Mach 3.2 and fly well above 18,288 m (60,000 feet).
		Lockheed hoped to achieve this by carefully shaping the airframe to reflect as little transmitted radar energy (radio waves) as possible, and by application of special paint designed to absorb, rather than reflect, those waves.

		The tentative plans call for the U.S. to sell Pakistan about two dozen of the aircraft, which are made by Lockheed Martin Corp. The Indians, who still are shopping for jets, could buy as many as 125 if they settle on the F-16.
		Lockheed officials have told the U.S. that unless it receives new orders by October for the F-16, it will have to begin shutting down its production line late this year.
		In February, a Lockheed executive told reporters in India that the company had secured U.S. export licenses to sell P3-C planes as well as C-130J military cargo planes to India.

		Lockheed's stranglehold on the military aircraft market is based on two planes, the F/A-22 Raptor and F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, both frequently lambasted by members of Congress for their technological problems and growing budgets.
		While Lockheed dominates the fighter market, it is not secure with unmanned drones, which many experts consider the future of military aviation.
		Lockheed Martin, one of the world's largest aerospace and defense contractors, had begun running full-page ads in newspapers and at subway stops near the Pentagon as part of an all-out lobbying campaign to oust tiny Sikorsky as the presidential helicopter builder.

		However, in 1929, the management of Lockheed voted to sell majority share ownership to the Detroit Aircraft Corporation, a Michigan-based holding company which already owned the Ryan and Eastman aircraft companies and which also had a substantial manufacturing capacity in the city of Detroit.
		The timing of Detroit's acquisition of Lockheed had been particularly unfortunate, since it took place only three months before the stock market crash which was to plunge the USA into the Great Depression.
		It would seem that Lockheed would be just one out of many casualties of the Depression, going down the tubes in much the same manner as did Thomas-Morse and Berliner-Joyce, its name never to be heard again.
