Lockheed Martin · What is Skunk Works?
Lockheed's advanced-development organisation, associated with Kelly Johnson and later Ben Rich, and with types such as the U-2 and SR-71. A historical shop, not a visitor workshop. Because ROK purchases of Lockheed types (notably F-16 and F-35) are a dated alliance-industrial story. See also the ROK military page.

This explains a campaign, battle, or weapon in context. It is not a league of nations. It does not replace the full topic page.
