According to information published by the Financial Times, on June 19, 2025, Lockheed Martin has officially submitted a proposal to the UK government for a comprehensive missile defense package aimed at countering escalating aerial and missile threats. This strategic offer comes amid heightened geopolitical instability, particularly Russia’s continued aggression in Ukraine, which has reinforced the urgency for integrated air and missile defense systems across Europe. Frank St John, Chief Operating Officer of Lockheed Martin, emphasized the company’s ability to rapidly deliver a layered solution including interceptors, ground-based sensors, and space-based early warning tools, while collaborating with UK or European firms to develop an integrated command and control architecture.
