Lockheed Martin is an American aerospace and defense corporation created by the 1995 merger of Lockheed Corporation and Martin Marietta. Headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland, it operates major businesses in aeronautics, missiles and fire control, rotary and mission systems, and space. The United States government is its largest customer, and its products include combat aircraft, satellites, missile-defense systems, sensors, spacecraft, and command-and-control technology.

The company inherits a century of aviation and space development from its predecessor firms. Lockheed’s secretive Skunk Works organization produced aircraft including the U-2, SR-71, and F-117, while Martin built missiles, launch vehicles, and spacecraft. Those programs demonstrate why unfamiliar test aircraft and compartmented development can generate sightings or rumors before the technology becomes public. They also make the contractor a recurring symbol of classified aerospace capability.

UAP narratives frequently allege that Lockheed Martin or an unnamed predecessor received recovered non-human material for study. Former officials and advocates have repeated versions of that claim, sometimes linking it to Ben Rich or proposed transfers to government programs. No publicly authenticated contract, custody record, hardware, or test result has established that the company possessed extraterrestrial technology. Lockheed Martin’s documented classified work makes the allegation culturally plausible to some audiences but does not constitute evidence for it.

The corporation’s real relevance to crash retrieval and reverse engineering is its capacity: deep technical expertise, secure facilities, long government relationships, and experience protecting special-access work. Those capabilities support advanced human aerospace programs and would also make the company an obvious target of speculation. A sound institutional history keeps confirmed aircraft and space achievements separate from extraordinary claims, while remaining attentive to contracts, records, and accountable testimony that could test those claims.

New [article](https://unapologetic.substack.com/p/pt-2-lockheed-martin-crashed-ufo) on substack today. It's an update to an [article](https://unapologetic.substack.com/p/scientists-claim-lockheed-martin) I wrote in January 2025 about the attempted transfer of UFO tech from Lockheed Martin to AAWSAP. Many have covered the story because the recent revelations from Stratton. There has been some great original reporting from Ben Schreckinger. Unfortunately what has been missing from a lot of cove...

🚨 AP just called Ohio’s 10th district Congressional race Incumbent Mike Turner has lost to newcomer Kristina Knickerbocker This may have large implications for UFO disclosure. Mike Turner has been the Congressmen for the Dayton area for decades. UFO enthusiast accuse him of being a UFO gatekeeper. He allegedly is responsible for stopping UFO legislation from progressing through Congress. His district contains Wright Patterson Air Force Base and Lockheed Martin is a long time donor, fueling s...

If Lockheed had a NHI craft or pieces/ornaments from one, why did they need AAWSAP? The CIA had cancelled the crash-retrieval contract so no funding for Lockheed (or others) to continue reverse-engineering efforts. AAWSAP had $22 million and various scientists/experts already on the payroll and ready to go. Sources: @jaystratton and Dr. Eric Davis have talked about this in interviews.

The Stratton vs. Kirkpatrick feud is escalating. Stratton tells Hannity the US has recovered "over 12" non-human craft. Kirkpatrick says the Lockheed craft stories came from people chasing money, and that AARO was told to release solved cases as "unresolved." Two former Pentagon UAP chiefs. Two completely opposite stories. Both can't be true. Put them side by side, under oath, in front of Congress. Let the public decide. #ufox #ufotwitter

I'm curious to see more on Gaffney's interview and denial but I don't see it shedding any light on the matter. If Lockheed was really going to divest themselves [Quoted] With publication on Oct. 13, 2026, of the book "Out of the Shadows" by @jaystratton, various stories about a proposed transfer of something from Lockheed Martin to AAWSAP, circa 2009, are again a matter of discussion and debate. Therefore I am now reposting this August 2025 post/thread. It notes the denials by Pentagon/AARO o...

[Retweeted] Former Pentagon UAP Task Force Director, and Defense Intelligence Senior Executive, Jay Stratton, reveals how Head of CIA’s Directorate of Science and Technology blocked plans to transfer UFO craft of nonhuman origins from the custody of Lockheed Martin to a Pentagon program‼️🛸 https://t.co/yHO6H9LvvC

This bothers me... @g_knapp: Lockheed was going to give AAWSAP UAP MATERIALS. Dr. Eric Davis: Lockheed was going to give AAWSAP UAP MATERIALS, or "ornaments." They had kept 20% of said ornaments and didn't return them to the CIA when the contract was cancelled. @jaystratton: Lockheed was going to give AAWSAP a craft. Materials from a crash? Or a craft? HUGE difference. Who's right? Did anybody ever see these ornaments or craft? Maybe. I can't see how Lockheed would have been able to keep 20%...

[Retweeted] Dr. James Ryder ex-Lockheed: on why he prefers UAP. They’re usually not objects you can hit, and they’re not flying, they appear. He also allegedly told Jay Stratton and others that Lockheed has or had 12 UAP craft, that Roswell was real with two crashes, and had NHI biologics. https://t.co/VSPx4T7bJm
