LOCKHEED MARTIN CORPORATION

This is a hypersonic weapon preliminary design review — a physics and aerospace engineering contract with zero AI/ML content. No machine learning techniques, autonomous systems, or AI-enabled components are mentioned or implied; the deliverable is a design review for a conventional strike platform. The problem is narrow and operational (hypersonic weapon development) but framed as a PDR milestone rather than a capability gap. Lockheed Martin is a legacy defense prime, not an AI-native firm, making this a canonical example of traditional defense procurement with no startup opportunity signal.
