Two of America's great pioneers of aviation, Allan and Malcolm Lockheed, began in 1912 a venture that would ascend to legendary heights in aircraft evolution. Surviving through America's early days of aviation, the name Lockheed would rise to the forefront of the industry producing record breaking designs - a trend that would continue for decades to come by way of genius designer Kelly Johnson. A staggering collection of highly successful aircraft would bear the company's name, including but not limited to the Vega, pre-war Electra, P-38 Lighting, C-69 Constellation, P-80 Shooting Star, F-104 Starfighter, P-2 Neptune, P-3 Orion, S-3 Viking, C-130 Hercules, U-2, F-117 Nighthawk and the all conquering SR-71 Blackbird. Through the latest airborne stealth technology the Lockheed legend is set to continue well into the 21st Century.
