July 1, 2025 | Lockheed MartinEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Lockheed Martin has closed its acquisition of the Rapid Solutions business of Amentum, an engineering and technology solutions company.
"We’re excited to officially welcome Rapid Solutions to the Lockheed Martin team," said Robert Lightfoot, president of Lockheed Martin Space. “Its highly skilled workforce and key radar and payload technology will play an integral part in Lockheed Martin’s ability to anticipate customer needs and maintain national security infrastructure.”
As a multi-domain provider of space and airborne mission capabilities that include intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance technologies, the Rapid Solutions portfolio solidifies Lockheed Martin’s ability to help customers better address the threat potential. Lockheed Martin’s space-based systems, in combination with space and air radar capabilities from Rapid Solutions, address a significant mission demand within the Golden Dome for America architecture to provide customers with critical awareness and decision-making advantage.
Tahllee Baynard, vice president of the Ignite rapid development team at Lockheed Martin Space, added, “Lockheed Martin is growing its portfolio to meet increased customer demands for domain awareness and real-time missions. The acquisition of Rapid Solutions not only positions us more competitively for critical national security missions, but also reinforces a continued investment in leading the nation’s defense capabilities and driving innovation across the industry.”
The Rapid Solutions team will be integrated into the Lockheed Martin Space business area.
