Human-cost band
not a war -- a firm; human cost sits in the wars that bought the products
Crash scandals (F-104 in Germany) and overrun hearings are the public cost file. War dead sit on the war pages of the types' users.
A prime's "cost" is also a jobs map in California, Texas, Georgia, and partner states.
Bands
Dated span (1995 merger (Lockheed 1926; Glenn L. Martin Company 1912))
Lockheed Martin is taught as 1995 merger (Lockheed 1926; Glenn L. Martin Company 1912). 1912 and 2013-20 are the usual poles.

US / UK / AU / CA classrooms
Lockheed Martin appears in English as a procurement or export-hearing name, not as a civic museum story.
Korean comparative reader
Lockheed Martin is read beside Yulgok, Hanwha, and ROK procurement history: a type or firm in a conscript-alliance state, not a live ORBAT.
