The world was a different place in 1986. Mike Tyson won his first title that year, making him the youngest man ever to do so. A brand new Ford Mustang cost less than $7,500, and Tom Cruise was the face of what may have been the most successful military recruitment campaign in U.S. history. Here […]
Per Lockheed Martin’s press release: Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT) will apply its expertise in interplanetary spacecraft to a new program designed to deliver commercial payloads to the surface of the Moon. NASA announced today they have selected Lockheed Martin’s McCandless Lunar Lander to provide payload delivery services as part of the agency’s Commercial Lunar Payload Services […]
Famed defense contractor Lockheed Martin has its hands in just about every facet of the American defense apparatus. From the nation’s flag-ship fighter, the F-35, to hypersonic missiles and hardened GPS satellites, the contracting giant’s wide array of specialties are counted on by the U.S. government to maintain the leading edge (or occasionally play catch […]
Sometimes it can be tough to appreciate the logic behind which defense technologies the United States Government deems suitable for export. The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, for instance, is regularly touted as the most advanced aircraft ever developed, but Uncle Sam is happy to distribute them willingly to paying nations with friendly relations to help […]
The F-35B has the distinction of being the only existing fifth-generation fighter in the world that’s capable of executing a vertical landing. While technically capable of vertical takeoffs under extremely limited circumstances, the F-35B needs very little space to take off even with a full combat load — making it uniquely suited for operations aboard […]
China’s long-touted Chengdu J-20, claimed to be the nation’s first fully functional fifth generation fighter platform, is neither fully functional nor is it technically a fifth-generation fighter — despite already being entered into service in China’s People’s Liberation Army. Fighter generations are not determined by a formal committee; generational labels are more like industry shorthand […]
New satellite images of the Tonopah Test Range in Nevada have spurred the interests of conspiracy theorists and aviation nerds alike, thanks to what appears to be a blurred out portion of a secret aircraft sticking out of one of the hangars. Simply censoring a small portion of satellite images of a military installation alone […]
Recently, the U.S. Navy scrapped plans for a carrier-based armed drone aircraft in favor of their new MQ-25 Stingray program. Instead of carrying ordnance aboard the unmanned vehicles, the MQ-25 will serve as a refueler that helps to extend the operational range of fighters like the Block III F/A-18 Super Hornet and the F-35C naval […]
Once the habitat of the legendary Concorde commercial jet, the realm of supersonic flight has been relegated primarily to military aircraft for years now, but Lockheed Martin aims to change all that thanks to funding from NASA and their new X-59 program. The premise behind the X-59, also known as the Quiet Supersonic Technology (QueSST) […]
The F-35B has the distinction of being the only existing fifth-generation fighter in the world that’s capable of executing a vertical landing. While technically capable of vertical takeoffs under extremely limited circumstances, the F-35B needs very little space to take off even with a full combat load — making it uniquely suited for operations aboard […]
The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor, the world’s first ever fifth-generation fighter, is still widely considered to be not only a superior dogfighter to the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter but likely, the most capable air superiority fighter on the planet. Its unique combination of stealth characteristics, speed, and maneuverability set it apart from acrobatic fourth-generation fighters […]
A grainy photo surfaced on social media recently that appears to show a U.S. Air Force F-22 squarely in someone’s crosshairs. Some research reveals that the image was originally posted on the Instagram account “Fighter_Bomber.” The image’s caption is in Russian. It describes how the image was taken using the infrared targeting cameras of the […]
