Lockheed Martin is scaling its global defence output as governments race to strengthen military readiness. The US aerospace and weapons manufacturer confirmed the delivery of its 750th HIMARS launcher and plans to roll out 200 F-35 fighter jets by the end of 2025, marking one of its most ambitious expansion phases yet.
According to Army Recognition, Lockheed achieved the HIMARS production milestone on 5 November 2025. The Camden, Arkansas, facility has become central to the US Army's Long Range Precision Fires programme, producing launchers, rockets, and missiles to meet surging domestic and allied demand.
