Lockheed Martin's The Quarterly - Q3 2025 Highlights

From sea to sky to space, Q3 was all about innovation in action. Precision strikes, record intercepts, next-gen aircraft, lunar milestones and community service—our teams delivered.

“Based on the effectiveness and reliability of our products and systems, strong demand from Lockheed Martin’s customers—both in the United States and among our allies—continues. As a result of this unprecedented demand, we are increasing production capacity significantly across a wide range of our lines of business,” said Lockheed Martin Chairman, President, and CEO Jim Taiclet.

“Our record $179 billion backlog—more than two and a half years of sales—underscores the trust our customers place in us and underpins our company’s long‑term growth prospects.

“Major contract awards for the CH‑53K and PAC‑3 MSE programs are the largest ever for our Rotary and Mission Systems and Missiles and Fire Control businesses, respectively. Additionally, in close collaboration with our customers, we finalized the contracts covering Lots 18 and 19 of the F‑35 early in the fourth quarter. Lockheed Martin has delivered a record 143 F‑35 Lightning II jets through the end of the third quarter.

“Looking ahead, we are investing aggressively in both new digital technologies and physical production capacity needed to meet the top defense priorities of the United States and its allies—and we are doing so in partnership with a number of leading technology partners, large and small. Major national‑defense initiatives like the Golden Dome for America demand proven leadership in a wide range of skills, including integrated air and missile defense, space warfare and highly secure command‑and‑control systems. Lockheed Martin is the capable leader and integrator across industry for these types of initiatives. Moreover, our disciplined capital deployment continues to provide robust, reliable rewards for our shareholders, highlighted by 23 consecutive years of dividend increases. Together, these results reflect a company built for performance today and poised for growth tomorrow.”
