New 88,000-square foot facility expands advanced manufacturing capacity and supports rapid delivery of homeland defense capability
Lockheed Martin opens a purpose-built Missile Assembly Building 5 (MAB-5) in Courtland, Alabama. The state-of-the-art facility will produce the Next Generation Interceptor (NGI) for the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) and bolster the nation’s layered missile defense architecture.
NGI is moving from design to production, with key elements of the system advancing through development test and integration. MAB-5 will streamline workflows, cut unnecessary handling and support tighter tolerances required for complex components. Integrated digital tools link design data directly to the factory floor, bolstering configuration control, quality assurance and repeatability as production scales.

This purpose-built facility is a critical piece of Lockheed Martin's commitment to delivering the NGI system to the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) with speed, reliability and precision.
Lockheed Martin is transforming a site that once trained pilots during World War II into a modern facility that meets the national security needs of today.
NGI is a state-of-the-art missile defense system that is being designed to detect, track and destroy incoming threats before they reach American soil.
NGI is packed with innovative technologies making it the smartest, most adaptable and most cost-effective Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) interceptor ever created. Here are five things you may not know about NGI, and why they matter for the security of tomorrow.
NGI is part of the GMD system and will provide a new, advanced interceptor to protect the homeland that will help the warfighter stay ahead of these evolving threats.
Thanks to a network of sensors calculating massive amounts of data across ground, sea, air and space, the homeland is protected by layered defense interceptors that are prepared to launch quickly.
The NGI program achieves the first official flight software release that is being developed within the Lockheed Martin NGI Software Factory.
