Lockheed Martin recently broke ground on a new Munitions Acceleration Center in Camden, Arkansas. The mission: Give American workers the tools to build the world’s most advanced missile systems at a volume the world hasn’t seen.

Built on a 2.2-million-square-foot campus spanning more than 2,400 acres, this new facility will integrate advanced manufacturing, robotics, and digital twin technologies to drive higher output with greater precision and reliability.

We’re Investing Billions in Speed and Scale

This is just the beginning. Over the next three years, Lockheed Martin will spend billions to build and modernize more than 20 facilities in Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, Massachusetts and Texas. This includes new production lines, upgrades to existing facilities, incorporation of advanced manufacturing techniques, and re‑engineered layouts designed to meet the urgent demand coming from the Pentagon and our allies.

Collectively, these efforts will expand Lockheed Martin’s munitions acceleration footprint by more than 40 percent, adding more than 1.5 million square feet of manufacturing space, with another one million square feet already planned to meet rising
