Lockheed Gets Billions to Increase Production Capacity

INDYRADIO 27jul27 In June, Lockheed Martin Corporation of Grand Prairie Texas saw large increases in existing contracts. In a  typical instance we see a contract for precision strike missiles more than doubled, with an increase of 8 billion dollars:

"Lockheed Martin Corp., Grand Prairie, Texas, was awarded a $8,402,489,648 modification (P00007) to contract W31P4Q-25-D-0010 to increase the ceiling and extend the ordering period for increased production capacity of Precision Strike Missiles Increment One and procurement of Early Operational Capability assets, follow-on production, development, and obsolescence management through fiscal 2032. The modification brings the total cumulative face value of the contract to $13,339,535,048. 

Army Contracting Command, Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, is the contracting activity."

Some of these are going to Romania, carrying top secret cutting edge technology, and Donald Trump would like to see similar distrubutions elsewhere, beyond what was considered the limit of our "national security". Even when such secrets are shared with trusted partners, it increases the attack surface for them to be exposed. 

It is possible to track these contracts on a daily basis, and we plan to do this systematically. The Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) has long established specific requirements for the publication of contracts, and the contracts are published here.

There have been small additions across the top of the page. That won't help you find the legally required publication of government contracts. Do not take the links in the obvious recent addition to the page.
