Lockheed Martin is a critical government and industry partner in the effort to sustain, and also modernize, the intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) leg of the nation’s nuclear triad and provide a credible, land-based strategic deterrent to the warfighter. Our legacy in developing operational intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) officially began in 1955 and Lockheed Martin has continuously supported the Air Force’s ICBM mission since the beginning, as the developer of the Atlas, Titan, MX Peacekeeper and Small ICBMs, and as the leading provider of reentry systems for multiple ICBM generations and of ground command and control systems for the Minuteman III.
