     This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form
S-4 (Registration No. 333-44671) (the "Registration Statement") is being filed
by Lockheed Martin Corporation ("Lockheed Martin") for the purpose of removing
from registration shares of Lockheed Martin Common Stock, par value $1.00 per
share ("Lockheed Martin Common Stock"), that will not be issued under the
Registration Statement.

     On July 3, 1997, Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman Corporation
("Northrop Grumman") issued a joint press release announcing that they had
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of July 2, 1997 (the
"Merger Agreement").  The Merger Agreement provided for the merger (the
"Merger") of a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lockheed Martin with and into Northrop
Grumman, with Northrop Grumman surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Lockheed Martin.

     On January 22, 1998, Lockheed Martin filed the Registration Statement to
register 86,028,440 shares of Lockheed Martin Common Stock for use in connection
with the Merger.  On February 26, 1998, the Lockheed Martin stockholders and the
Northrop Grumman stockholders approved the transaction.

     Clause (a) of Section 7.2 of the Merger Agreement provided generally that
the Merger Agreement could be terminated and the Merger abandoned by action of
the Board of Directors of either Lockheed Martin or Northrop Grumman if the
Merger had not been consummated by March 31, 1998.  On July 16, 1998, at a
special meeting of the Board of Directors of Lockheed Martin, the Board of
Directors, acting pursuant to clause (a) of Section 7.2 of the Merger Agreement,
terminated the Merger Agreement and abandoned the Merger.

     None of the shares of Lockheed Martin Common Stock registered on the
Registration Statement were issued, nor will any of such shares be issued, due
to the termination of the Merger Agreement and abandonment of the Merger.
Accordingly, 86,028,440 shares of Lockheed Martin Common Stock are hereby
removed from registration.
