Lockheed Martin and Indra have signed a new collaboration agreement to jointly explore areas of cooperation in the air, land, sea, and cyber defense sectors, as well as in simulation and sustainment.
The agreement, signed by Ray Piselli, vice president of International, Lockheed Martin, and José Vicente de los Mozos, chief executive officer Indra on Friday (Jan. 19), paves the way for engineers at the Spanish company to develop and manufacture defense and training systems for Spain and other world markets.
Speaking at the signing event, Ray Piselli said: “Developing mutually beneficial relationships with Spanish industry is a key focus for our team. This new agreement with Indra will strengthen our enduring relationship with Spain. It shows Lockheed Martin is a corporate citizen that is here for the long-term to support Spanish security, its industry, and the national economy for decades to come.”
“At Indra we’ve already proven that we believe in collaboration so that the Spanish defence industry can show its full potential, and this partnership with one of the world’s giants in the sector will undoubtedly contribute to that goal,” said Indra chairman Marc Murtra.
José Vicente de los Mozos added: “This agreement with Lockheed Martin highlights the value of the cutting-edge technology we’re developing in Spain in areas such as air defence, radars, electronic defence, cyber defence, simulation, and sustainment, as well as our capacity to integrate, manufacture and market systems worldwide. Collaboration in these areas strengthens our position and that of the Spanish industry as a whole.”
For more than 20 years, Lockheed Martin has supported the Spanish Navy in its missions by delivering highly capable systems for F-100 frigates, S-80 submarines, MH-60R, and SH-60B helicopters.
Lockheed Martin’s partnerships across the world result in millions of dollars being invested with the international companies that are part of its global supply chain, creating security and prosperity for the nations the company works with.
Through industrial partnerships, Lockheed Martin has delivered more than $1 billion of industrial benefits to Spain to date, with the Spanish industry supporting many Lockheed Martin programs around the world.
