Heritage The Owego facility opened in 1957 and was initially occupied by IBM employees who developed targeting and navigational systems for the Air Force's B-52 strategic bomber. During the next 37 years, IBM Owego grew to include programs such as defense systems for radar-evading stealth aircraft, computer hardware for the space shuttle and anti-surface warfare. With the downsizing of the Department of Defense (DoD) budget, the company set upon a course to diversify into non-DoD business areas, based on core competencies. In 1991, aerospace products and programs comprised 94 percent of IBM Owego's business base. By 1997, nearly two-thirds of the company's business consisted of non-DoD programs, including postal systems, information systems and international programs. In March 1994, the Loral Corporation, a high-technology company that concentrated on defense electronics, communications and space and systems integration, acquired IBM Owego. Lockheed Martin Corporation strategically combined with Loral's defense electronics and systems integration businesses in April 1996 and the Owego site became Lockheed Martin Federal Systems, Owego. In 1998, the site was converted into headquarters for Lockheed Martin Systems Integration - Owego, UK Integrated Systems and Lockheed Martin Canada.
