Lockheed Martin, a U.S. defense giant, acquired Ultra Maritime, a Nova Scotia-based undersea warfare company based in Dartmouth, for $3.45 billion. The acquisition was finalized last week after both companies signed an agreement in July 2026. Ultra Maritime, founded in 1947 and specializing in advanced sonar solutions and torpedo defense systems, employs about 2,000 people across five countries and over 250 people locally in Dartmouth. Stephanie Hill, president of Lockheed Martin’s Rotary and Mission Systems division, stated that this acquisition will help the company meet the increasing global demand for undersea warfare capabilities.
