Lockheed Martin Announces Industrial Participation, Offset Opportunities For Thailand
July 16, 2024 | Lockheed MartinEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Lockheed Martin announced it would continue its legacy of delivering economic value to Thailand through a robust industrial participation proposal – also known as an “offset” proposal – driven by the Thai government’s evaluation of the F-16 Block 70/72 for its future fighter program.
Projects offered as part of the F-16 Block 70/72 proposal include support for the creation of a Research and Development Center to advance Thailand’s capabilities across a number of sectors, including manufacturing and agriculture; advanced aerospace engineering training for industry partners in Thailand and the Royal Thai Air Force; manufacturing workforce development projects; technical assistance for an advanced datalink upgrade to ensure interoperability with existing fleet; advanced fighter maintenance training for the Royal Thai Air Force; investigating supply chain opportunities for Thai industry; and sustainment capabilities developed within Thailand.
“Lockheed Martin values our 40-year partnership and history with Thailand and the Royal Thai Air Force, and we are confident the F-16 Block 70/72 will complement its existing F-16 fleet,” said Aimee Burnett, vice president, business development, Integrated Fighter Group at Lockheed Martin. “The F-16 Block 70/72 would deliver the advanced 21st Century Security® capabilities and performance needed to address Thailand’s most pressing defense requirements.”
She added: “Lockheed Martin brings decades of experience delivering value to local industries and workforces, including a successful history of executed offset projects with Thai industry partners and the Royal Thai Air Force. We are excited to bring that same mindset to the F-16 Block 70/72 program.”

Driving Sustainability in PCB Design
04/24/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007Filbert (Fil) Arzola is an electrical engineer at Raytheon. He’s smart, entertaining, and passionate about PCB design. As it turns out, he’s also passionate about “Mother Earth,” as he calls her. Born and raised in Southern California, he freely admits that he turns the water off when he brushes his teeth and yells at his brother for throwing batteries in the garbage. But when looking at the issue of sustainability and PCB design, he urges his audiences to ponder what sustainability looks like. Can PCB designers, he asks, make any impact on sustainability at all?
