The B-2 Spirit, F-35 Lightning II, F-117 Nighthawk, Lockheed L-1011 Tristar, the SR-71 Blackbird, X-15 and the Space Shuttle are just amongst the planes which were developed at the centre. The research and completed products made here are used by airlines and air forces internationally along with NASA.

Located within the city are major operations for Boeing, Lockheed Martin (Skunk Works) and Northrop Grumman. The USAF Plant 42, a previous Boeing hanger is amongst the biggest buildings within the globe. It is owned by the Los Angeles World Airport.
