                                Schedule 13D/A 
                                --------------

        This Amendment No. 2 (this "Amendment") to the statement on Schedule 
13D (the "Statement") relates to shares of Common Stock, $1.00 par value per 
share (the "Common Stock") of Globalstar Telecommunications Limited (the 
"Company") and is being filed by Lockheed Martin Corporation ("Lockheed Martin")
in connection with the disposition of Common Stock currently owned by Lockheed 
Martin.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
        ----------------------
        
        The response set forth in Item 4 of the Statement, as previously amended
and supplemented, is hereby incorporated by reference and is amended and 
supplemented by the following:

        On November 17, 1997, in accordance with the terms of the Contribution
and Assumption Agreement (the "Contribution Agreement") between Lockheed Martin
and LMT Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation ("LMT Sub"), Lockheed Martin
contributed, among other things, the shares of Common Stock of Globalstar owned
by Lockheed Martin to LMT Sub. In addition, on November 17, 1997 following
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement,
pursuant to the Exchange Agreement dated October 31, 1997 (the "Exchange
Agreement"), Lockheed Martin exchanged all of the issued and outstanding capital
stock of LMT Sub for all of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Lockheed
Martin owned by General Electric Company ("GE") and certain of its subsidiaries.
Accordingly, as of November 17, 1997, Lockheed Martin has disposed of the entire
equity interest in Globalstar previously beneficially owned by it.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
        ------------------------------------
        
        The response set forth in Item 5 of the Statement, as previously 
amended and supplemented, is hereby incorporated by reference and is amended and
supplemented by the following:

        Effective November 17, 1997, Lockheed Martin exchanged, among other 
things, all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of LMT Sub for all of 
the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Lockheed Martin then owned by GE and
certain of its subsidiaries. Following this transaction, Lockheed Martin holds 
no outstanding shares of Common Stock, and, accordingly, the Statement is hereby
terminated.

        Except for the transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement 
and the Exchange Agreement described above, there have been no transactions in 
the Common Stock of Globalstar Telecommunications Limited by Lockheed Martin in 
the last sixty (60) days.
