For the first time in their 75-year history, Lockheed Martin is opening their hangar doors and pulling back the veil on the black world of their cloak and dagger "Skunk Works" program.

From the dawn of the atomic age, man's ultimate weapons have threatened the world with Armageddon. But there's another potent threat--accidents.

No weapons program in U.S. history demanded more from the men who served it than the B-29 Superfortress. The giant, seemingly perfect planes appeared to devastate Japan with impunity at low cost. The true story was horrifying.

This program uncovers new information about secret spy plane missions flown over communist territories during the Cold War. Over 10,000 missions were flown; many were tracked and attacked by the U.S.S.R., China, and North Korea.

During the Vietnam War, Air Force and Marine pilots flew "low and slow" over jungles in antiquated propeller planes--often unarmed--to direct jet bombers toward target.

From its early beginnings aiding General John J. Pershing on his 1916 Mexican expedition, the U.S. air intelligence arm has experienced an intriguing history that spans both world wars, including spectacular successes using spy planes.
