    Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company's site in Marietta, Georgia, is home to the C-130J Hercules transport and the F/A-22 Raptor air dominance fighter. The site is also responsible for the avionics and engine modernization programs for the C-5 Galaxy strategic transport.

    The plant, which is located at the northern end of the greater metropolitan Atlanta area, was opened during World War II for production of B-29 bombers. The facility was reopened in 1951 to refurbish B-29s to help meet the U.S. Air Force's immediate need for bombers for the Korean War. The facility later built 397 B-47 Stratojet swept-wing jet bombers under license during the Cold War.

    Since then, the Marietta facility has developed and produced the C-130 Hercules airlifter (more than 2,200 built in four major versions), the XV-4 Hummingbird research aircraft, the JetStar business jet, the LASA-60 general aviation aircraft, the C-141 StarLifter jet transport, the C-5 Galaxy, and the P-3 Orion. Currently, the company builds the C-130J and the F/A-22. It is also teamed with Alenia Inc. to offer the C-27J twin-engined transport.
