Lockheed Martin is strengthening the resilience of its supply chain to ensure America and its allies receive combat-ready missile systems exactly when they are needed. With unprecedented demand driven by combat-proven performance, we are actively strengthening the resilience of our supply chain, deepening collaboration with suppliers and driving innovation across operations.  

Lockheed Martin’s Missiles and Fire Control (MFC) business hosted an Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) supplier summit with more than 200 domestic and international suppliers focused on building stronger relationships, emphasizing speed and driving solutions to better prepare for current and future threats. 

During the summit, Lockheed Martin asked suppliers to fully lean into the mission—embracing innovative ideas and new ways of working to help meet urgent demand and deliver critical capabilities without delay. Speakers included key U.S. government customers, along with former and current air defenders who have used and ® MSE systems in flight tests and combat missions.

“The recent integrated air and missile defense supplier summit reinforced Lockheed Martin’s commitment to delivering combat-proven missile-defense solutions faster than any adversary can field a threat,” said Tim Cahill, president, Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control. “By strengthening partnerships across the industrial base, the company is building the supply chain resilience that underpins the rapid, affordable fielding of capabilities our warfighters demand. Working alongside government and supplier partners, we are confident we can meet current and accelerated production rates required by American and allied forces.”
