The rapid delivery from GM Defense underscores the effectiveness of defense and commercial partnerships, the company added. "Our partnership with GM Defense is a concrete example of how we're merging world-class commercial manufacturing with defense supply chain and production practices and rapidly translating that into battlefield readiness for the [US]," said Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control President Tim Cahill. Lockheed said it is investing $8 billion to $9 billion to boost munitions production, with new facilities, expansions and more jobs at over 20 sites in the US.
