Lockheed Martin is investing $300 million to expand advanced munitions manufacturing at its Grand Prairie, Texas, facility. The expansion will increase the site's manufacturing footprint to more than 735,000 square feet. Broader capacity expansion plans will create 6,000 US jobs, including 2,000 in Texas. Hadrian will install a highly automated, 24-machine machining cell at Grand Prairie, expected to begin operating in early 2027. The investment forms part of an $8-9 billion commitment through 2030 to scale munitions production across more than 20 US facilities.
