Partnering to Promote Nature Conservation and National Security Lockheed Martin's partnership with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) has advanced environmental and conservation efforts while protecting land critical to military operations through the past 5 years of this SMP cycle. Through our $4.9 million support over the last five years, TNC has helped communities prepare for climate-related challenges and focused on coastal restoration, land conservation, and reforestation near military bases. Many of these projects have been spearheaded by the U.S. Department of War's Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration (REPI) Program.
In 2025, we continued to support a project to improve sustainable land management of farms in Maryland communities to ensure long-term economic viability and adaptation to sea level rise across the Middle Chesapeake Sentinel Landscape, home to Naval Air Station (NAS) Patuxent River-Atlantic Test Ranges.
The partnership promotes military readiness by preventing incompatible development within the Navy's fly zone, which reduces interference with the Navy's mission, ensures a safe environment for training and mission operations and preserves the integrity of the Navy's preeminent Atlantic Test range.
TNC is also partnering with the Security, Open Space, and Agricultural Resilience (SOAR) program to protect land critical to ecological resilience and military operations near Colorado Springs, CO.

Hazardous Chemicals/Materials
Ensuring Regulatory Compliance and Business Resilience
Advanced chemistries and materials are integral to the product performance, quality and durability of the highly complex products Lockheed Martin delivers to our customers. We have established a Chemical Stewardship Integrated Project Team to manage and assist with reducing Lockheed Martin's use of hazardous chemicals as appropriate. The team focuses on three interrelated pillars-chemical regulations and restrictions, risk and sustainability, and product life cycle and data management.
The team ensures our chemical compliance with U.S. and worldwide regulations, works to identify replacements for hazardous chemicals in our products and gathers chemical data from our suppliers. Our responsible chemical stewardship work has prepared Lockheed Martin to set a new 2030 SMP goal to incorporate a resilient design approach into our product design.
Reducing Hazardous Chemicals in Our Products
Collaborating with numerous industry and research partners, our Aeronautics team leads rigorous test programs that aim to replace
aluminum surfaces containing hexavalent chromium in F-35 and C-130 aircraft with coatings that are safer for human and environmental health. Our collaborative work includes participation with the G8/G9 Aerospace Organic Coatings & Sealing Committees, which enables Lockheed Martin to stay up to date on the latest products and technologies utilized in industry. Recently, our team identified a new coating material that meets or exceeds the performance of the legacy compound, demonstrating robust adhesion and delivering equivalent or superior corrosion protection. Another project, testing a rare-earth-element-free primer on the F-35, led to improved corrosion resistance compared to the legacy primer; the results may lead to an F-35 without any hexavalent chromium material usage. Through the implementation of new successful technologies, we improve our overall sustainability, help customers meet their environmental goals and enable our products to adhere to government regulations. These changes align with our company's and customers' commitment to mission success and the protection of our workers and
the environment.
