Lockheed Martin Skunk Works.
documentedsource_actorPrivate Aerospace Contractors
Lockheed's Advanced Development Projects division; built U-2, SR-71, F-117. Central to UFO custody lore via Ben Rich quotes.
Founded 1943 by Kelly Johnson as a rapid secret-prototyping shop. Produced the first US jet fighter (XP-80), the U-2, the A-12/SR-71 Blackbird, and the F-117 stealth fighter, much of it tested at Area 51. Its genuine black-program secrecy is what makes alien-tech allegations stick. No documented evidence connects it to non-human craft.
