Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | BASIS OF PRESENTATION We prepared these consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We base these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ materially from these estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, accounting for sales and cost recognition, postretirement benefit plans, environmental receivables and liabilities, evaluation of goodwill and other assets for impairment, income taxes including deferred tax assets, fair value measurements and contingencies. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of subsidiaries we control and variable interest entities if we are the primary beneficiary. We eliminate intercompany balances and transactions in consolidation. We close our books and records on the last Sunday of the calendar quarter, which was on March 31 for the first quarter of 2019 and March 25 for the first quarter of 2018 , to align our financial closing with our business processes. The consolidated financial statements and tables of financial information included herein are labeled based on that convention. This practice only affects interim periods as our fiscal year ends on December 31. We adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), effective January 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective transition method. Consequently, periods prior to January 1, 2019 are not restated for the adoption of ASU 2016-02. See “ Note 6 – Leases ” and “ Note 12 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements ” for more information regarding our adoption of this standard. Other than the changes in our accounting policies related to adoption of ASU 2016-02, we followed the accounting policies disclosed in the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 ( 2018 Form 10-K) filed with the SEC. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year or future periods. Unless otherwise noted, we present all per share amounts cited in these consolidated financial statements on a “per diluted share” basis. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2018 |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE | EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE The weighted average number of shares outstanding used to compute earnings per common share were as follows (in millions): Quarters Ended March 31, March 25, Weighted average common shares outstanding for basic computations 282.5 285.5 Weighted average dilutive effect of equity awards 1.8 2.4 Weighted average common shares outstanding for diluted computations 284.3 287.9 We compute basic and diluted earnings per common share by dividing net earnings by the respective weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the periods presented. Our calculation of diluted earnings per common share also includes the dilutive effects for the assumed vesting of outstanding restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance stock units (PSUs) and exercise of outstanding stock options based on the treasury stock method. There were no significant anti-dilutive equity awards during the quarters ended March 31, 2019 or March 25, 2018 |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
INFORMATION ON BUSINESS SEGMENTS | INFORMATION ON BUSINESS SEGMENTS We operate in four business segments: Aeronautics, Missiles and Fire Control (MFC), Rotary and Mission Systems (RMS) and Space. We organize our business segments based on the nature of the products and services offered. Net sales and operating profit of our business segments exclude intersegment sales and cost of sales as these activities are eliminated in consolidation. Business segment operating profit includes our share of earnings or losses from equity method investees as the operating activities of the equity method investees are closely aligned with the operations of our business segments. Business segment operating profit also includes total pension and other postretirement benefit plan costs recoverable on U.S. Government contracts as determined in accordance with U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS). However, our financial statements must present total costs calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) under U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the adjustment from CAS cost to FAS service cost for our postretirement benefit plans is excluded from business segment operating profit (see additional discussion below). Business segment operating profit also excludes expense for stock-based compensation, corporate costs not considered allocable under FAR, and the effects of items not considered part of management’s evaluation of segment operating performance. Excluded items are included in the reconciling item “Unallocated items” between operating profit from our business segments and our consolidated operating profit. See “ Note 11 – Other ” for a discussion related to certain factors that may impact the comparability of net sales and operating profit of our business segments. Summary operating results for each of our business segments were as follows (in millions): Quarters Ended March 31, March 25, Net sales Aeronautics $ 5,584 $ 4,398 Missiles and Fire Control 2,350 1,677 Rotary and Mission Systems 3,762 3,223 Space 2,640 2,337 Total net sales $ 14,336 $ 11,635 Operating profit Aeronautics $ 585 $ 474 Missiles and Fire Control 417 261 Rotary and Mission Systems 379 311 Space 334 264 Total business segment operating profit 1,715 1,310 Unallocated items FAS/CAS operating adjustment (a) 512 451 Stock-based compensation (37 ) (38 ) Other, net 93 2 Total unallocated items 568 415 Total consolidated operating profit $ 2,283 $ 1,725 Intersegment sales Aeronautics $ 42 $ 25 Missiles and Fire Control 121 95 Rotary and Mission Systems 580 461 Space 68 45 Total intersegment sales $ 811 $ 626 (a) The FAS/CAS operating adjustment represents the difference between the service cost component of FAS pension expense and total pension costs recoverable on U.S. Government contracts as determined in accordance with CAS. Our total net FAS/CAS pension adjustment for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and March 25, 2018 , including the service and non-service cost components of FAS pension expense for our qualified defined benefit pension plans, were as follows (in millions): Quarters Ended March 31, March 25, Total FAS expense and CAS costs FAS pension expense $ (273 ) $ (356 ) Less: CAS pension cost 641 608 Net FAS/CAS pension adjustment $ 368 $ 252 Service and non-service cost reconciliation FAS pension service cost $ (129 ) $ (157 ) Less: CAS pension cost 641 608 FAS/CAS operating adjustment 512 451 Non-operating FAS pension cost (a) (144 ) (199 ) Net FAS/CAS pension adjustment $ 368 $ 252 (a) The non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost relate only to our qualified defined benefit pension plans. In addition to the non service cost components in the table above, we incurred similar costs for our other postretirement benefit plans of $30 million and $17 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and March 25, 2018 . We recover CAS pension and other postretirement benefit plan cost through the pricing of our products and services on U.S. Government contracts and, therefore, recognize CAS cost in each of our business segment’s net sales and cost of sales. Our consolidated financial statements must present FAS pension and other postretirement benefit plan expense calculated in accordance with FAS requirements under U.S. GAAP. The operating portion of the net FAS/CAS pension adjustment represents the difference between the service cost component of FAS pension expense and total CAS pension cost. The non-service FAS pension cost component is included in other non-operating expense, net in our consolidated statements of earnings. The net FAS/CAS pension adjustment increases or decreases CAS pension cost to equal total FAS pension cost (both service and non-service).

CONTRACT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES | CONTRACT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts when the percentage-of-completion cost-to-cost method of revenue recognition is utilized and revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. Contract assets and contract liabilities were as follows (in millions): March 31, December 31, Contract assets $ 10,497 $ 9,472 Contract liabilities 6,796 6,491 Contract assets increased $1.0 billion during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , primarily due to the recognition of revenue related to the satisfaction or partial satisfaction of performance obligations during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 for which we have not yet billed our customers. There were no significant impairment losses related to our contract assets during the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and March 25, 2018 . Contract liabilities increased $305 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , primarily due to payments received in advance of our satisfaction or partial satisfaction of these performance obligations. During the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , we recognized $1.8 billion of our contract liabilities at December 31, 2018 as revenue. During the quarter ended March 25, 2018 , we recognized $1.9 billion of our contract liabilities at December 31, 2017 |

Pre-contract costs that are initially capitalized in inventory are generally recognized as cost of sales consistent with the transfer of products and services to the customer upon the receipt of the anticipated contract. All other pre-contract costs, including start-up costs, are expensed as incurred. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , $468 million and $443 million |
LEASES
LEASES | 3 Months Ended |

Leases [Abstract] | |
LEASES | LEASES We evaluate whether our contractual arrangements contain leases at the inception of such arrangements. Specifically, we consider whether we can control the underlying asset and have the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits or outputs from the asset. Substantially all of our leases are long-term operating leases with fixed payment terms. We do not have significant financing leases. Our right-of-use (ROU) operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and our operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments. ROU operating lease assets are recorded in other noncurrent assets in our consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease liabilities are recorded in other current liabilities or other noncurrent liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet based on their contractual due dates. Both the ROU operating lease asset and liability are recognized as of the lease commencement date at the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate that can readily be determined. Therefore, we use a discount rate based on our incremental borrowing rate, which is determined using our credit rating and information available as of the commencement date. ROU operating lease assets include lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date and exclude lease incentives. Our operating lease agreements may include options to extend the lease term or terminate it early. We include options to extend or terminate leases in the ROU operating lease asset and liability when it is reasonably certain we will exercise these options. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in cost of sales on our consolidated statement of earnings. We have operating lease arrangements with lease and non-lease components. The non-lease components in our arrangements are not significant when compared to the lease components. For all operating leases, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single component. Additionally, for certain equipment leases, we apply a portfolio approach to recognize operating lease ROU assets and liabilities. We evaluate ROU assets for impairment consistent with our property, plant and equipment policy disclosure included in our 2018 Form 10‑K. Generally, we enter into operating lease agreements for facilities, land and equipment. Our ROU operating lease assets were $969 million at March 31, 2019 . Operating lease liabilities were $1.1 billion , of which $812 million were classified as noncurrent, at March 31, 2019 . New ROU operating lease assets and liabilities entered into during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 were not significant. The weighted average remaining lease term and discount rate for our operating leases were approximately 9.3 years and 3.4% at March 31, 2019 . During the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and March 25, 2018 , we recognized operating lease expense of $59 million and $60 million . In addition, we made cash payments of $57 million for operating leases during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , which are included in cash flows from operating activities in our consolidated statement of cash flows. Future minimum lease commitments at March 31, 2019 were as follows (in millions): Total Remainder of 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Thereafter Operating leases $ 1,243 $ 234 $ 175 $ 147 $ 117 $ 96 $ 474 Less: imputed interest $ 182 Total $ 1,061 |

POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS | POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS Our pretax net periodic benefit cost related to our qualified defined benefit pension plans and retiree medical and life insurance plans consisted of the following (in millions): Quarters Ended March 31, March 25, Qualified defined benefit pension plans Service cost $ 129 $ 157 Interest cost 452 435 Expected return on plan assets (575 ) (599 ) Recognized net actuarial losses 351 444 Amortization of prior service credits (84 ) (81 ) Total net periodic benefit cost $ 273 $ 356 Retiree medical and life insurance plans Service cost $ 4 $ 5 Interest cost 24 23 Expected return on plan assets (28 ) (34 ) Recognized net actuarial losses 1 1 Amortization of prior service costs 10 4 Total net periodic benefit (credit) cost $ 11 $ (1 ) We record the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost as part of cost of sales and the non-service cost components of net periodic benefit cost as part of other non-operating expense, net in the consolidated statements of earnings. The recognized net actuarial losses and amortization of prior service credits or costs in the table above, along with similar costs related to our other postretirement benefit plans ( $11 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 and $14 million for the quarter ended March 25, 2018 ) were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL) and recorded as a component of net periodic benefit cost for the periods presented. These costs totaled $289 million ( $227 million , net of tax) during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 and $382 million ( $300 million , net of tax) during the quarter ended March 25, 2018 and were recorded on our consolidated statements of comprehensive income as an increase to other comprehensive income. The funding of our qualified defined benefit pension plans is determined in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), as amended by the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (PPA), along with consideration of CAS and Internal Revenue Code rules. During the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , there were no contributions to our qualified defined benefit pension plans. During the quarter ended March 25, 2018 , we contributed $1.5 billion |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENCIES We are a party to or have property subject to litigation and other proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business, including matters arising under provisions relating to the protection of the environment and are subject to contingencies related to certain businesses we previously owned. These types of matters could result in fines, penalties, compensatory or treble damages or non-monetary sanctions or relief. We believe the probability is remote that the outcome of each of these matters, including the legal proceedings described below, will have a material adverse effect on the corporation as a whole, notwithstanding that the unfavorable resolution of any matter may have a material effect on our net earnings in any particular interim reporting period. Among the factors that we consider in this assessment are the nature of existing legal proceedings and claims, the asserted or possible damages or loss contingency (if estimable), the progress of the case, existing law and precedent, the opinions or views of legal counsel and other advisers, our experience in similar cases and the experience of other companies, the facts available to us at the time of assessment and how we intend to respond to the proceeding or claim. Our assessment of these factors may change over time as individual proceedings or claims progress. Although we cannot predict the outcome of legal or other proceedings with certainty, where there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss may have been incurred, GAAP requires us to disclose an estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss or make a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. We follow a thorough process in which we seek to estimate the reasonably possible loss or range of loss, and only if we are unable to make such an estimate do we conclude and disclose that an estimate cannot be made. Accordingly, unless otherwise indicated below in our discussion of legal proceedings, a reasonably possible loss or range of loss associated with any individual legal proceeding cannot be estimated. Legal Proceedings As a result of our acquisition of Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (Sikorsky), we assumed the defense of and any potential liability for two civil False Claims Act lawsuits pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin. In October 2014, the U.S. Government filed a complaint in intervention in the first suit, which was brought by qui tam relator Mary Patzer, a former Derco Aerospace (Derco) employee. In May 2017, the U.S. Government filed a complaint in intervention in the second suit, which was brought by qui tam relator Peter Cimma, a former Sikorsky Support Services, Inc. (SSSI) employee. In November 2017, the Court consolidated the cases into a single action for discovery and trial. The U.S. Government alleges that Sikorsky and two of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Derco and SSSI, violated the civil False Claims Act and the Truth in Negotiations Act in connection with a contract the U.S. Navy awarded to SSSI in June 2006 to support the Navy’s T-34 and T-44 fixed-wing turboprop training aircraft. SSSI subcontracted with Derco, primarily to procure and manage spare parts for the training aircraft. The U.S. Government contends that SSSI overbilled the Navy on the contract as the result of Derco’s use of prohibited cost-plus-percentage-of-cost pricing to add profit and overhead costs as a percentage of the price of the spare parts that Derco procured and then sold to SSSI. The U.S. Government also alleges that Derco’s claims to SSSI, SSSI’s claims to the Navy, and SSSI’s yearly Certificates of Final Indirect Costs from 2006 through 2012 were false and that SSSI submitted inaccurate cost or pricing data in violation of the Truth in Negotiations Act for a sole-sourced, follow-on “bridge” contract. The U.S. Government’s complaints assert common law claims for breach of contract and unjust enrichment. The U.S. Government further alleged violations of the Anti-Kickback Act and False Claims Act based on a monthly “chargeback,” through which SSSI billed Derco for the cost of certain SSSI personnel, allegedly in exchange for SSSI’s permitting a pricing arrangement that was “highly favorable” to Derco. On January 12, 2018, the Corporation filed a partial motion to dismiss intended to narrow the U.S. Government’s claims, including by seeking dismissal of the Anti-Kickback Act allegations. The Corporation also moved to dismiss Cimma as a party under the False Claims Act’s first-to-file rule, which permits only the first relator to recover in a pending case. The District Court granted these motions, in part, on July 20, 2018, dismissing the Government’s claims under the Anti-Kickback Act and dismissing Cimma as a party to the litigation. The U.S. Government seeks damages of approximately $52 million , subject to trebling, plus statutory penalties. We believe that we have legal and factual defenses to the U.S. Government’s remaining claims. Although we continue to evaluate our liability and exposure, we do not currently believe that it is probable that we will incur a material loss. If, contrary to our expectations, the U.S. Government prevails in this matter and proves damages at or near $52 million and is successful in having such damages trebled, the outcome could have an adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which a liability is recognized and on our cash flows for the period in which any damages are paid. On February 8, 2019, the Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington alleging, among other counts, civil False Claims Act (FCA) and civil Anti-Kickback Act (AKA) violations against Mission Support Alliance, LLC (MSA), Lockheed Martin, Lockheed Martin Services, Inc. (LMSI) and a current Lockheed Martin vice president. The dollar amount of damages sought is not specified but DOJ seeks treble damages with respect to the FCA and penalties that are subject to doubling under the AKA. Lockheed Martin earlier disclosed investigations by the Department of Energy (DOE) and DOJ (the Investigations) and DOJ’s intent to bring suit. The Investigations relate primarily to information technology services performed by LMSI under a subcontract to MSA and the pricing by MSA and LMSI of those services as well as Lockheed Martin’s payment of standard incentive compensation to certain employees who were seconded to MSA, including the vice president. MSA is a joint venture that holds a prime contract to provide infrastructure support services at DOE’s Hanford facility. On April 23, 2019, the parties each filed partial motions to dismiss the U.S. Government’s FCA and AKA allegations. On August 16, 2016, we divested our former Information Systems & Global Solutions (IS&GS) business segment to Leidos Holdings, Inc. (Leidos) in a transaction that resulted in IS&GS, now known as Leidos Innovations Corporation (Leidos Innovations), becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Leidos (the Transaction). In the Transaction, Leidos acquired IS&GS’ interest in MSA and the liabilities related to Lockheed Martin’s participation in MSA. Included within the liabilities assumed were those associated with the Investigations. Lockheed Martin transferred to Leidos a reserve of approximately $38 million established by Lockheed Martin with respect to its potential liability and that of its affiliates arising from the Investigations and agreed to indemnify Leidos Innovations with respect to the liabilities assumed for damages to Leidos Innovations and an enumerated list of subsidiaries of Leidos Innovations related to the Investigations for 100% of amounts in excess of this reserve up to $64 million and 50% of amounts in excess of $64 million . We cannot reasonably estimate our exposure at this time, but it is possible that a settlement by or judgment against any of the defendants could implicate Lockheed Martin’s indemnification obligations as described above. At present, in view of what we believe to be the strength of the defenses, our belief that Leidos assumed the liabilities, and our view of the structure of the indemnity, we do not believe it probable that we will incur a material loss and have not taken any reserve. On April 24, 2009, we filed a declaratory judgment action against the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority and its Capital Construction Company (collectively, the MTA) asking the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York to find that the MTA is in material breach of our agreement based on the MTA’s failure to provide access to sites where work must be performed and the customer-furnished equipment necessary to complete the contract. The MTA filed an answer and counterclaim alleging that we breached the contract and subsequently terminated the contract for alleged default. The primary damages sought by the MTA are the costs to complete the contract and potential re-procurement costs. While we are unable to estimate the cost of another contractor to complete the contract and the costs of re-procurement, we note that our contract with the MTA had a total value of $323 million , of which $241 million was paid to us, and that the MTA is seeking damages of approximately $190 million . We dispute the MTA’s allegations and are defending against them. Additionally, following an investigation, our sureties on a performance bond related to this matter, who were represented by independent counsel, concluded that the MTA’s termination of the contract was improper. Finally, our declaratory judgment action was later amended to include claims for monetary damages against the MTA of approximately $95 million . This matter was taken under submission by the District Court in December 2014, after a five-week bench trial and the filing of post-trial pleadings by the parties. We continue to await a decision from the District Court. Although this matter relates to our former IS&GS business, we retained the litigation when we divested IS&GS in 2016. Environmental Matters We are involved in proceedings and potential proceedings relating to soil, sediment, surface water, and groundwater contamination, disposal of hazardous substances, and other environmental matters at several of our current or former facilities, facilities for which we may have contractual responsibility, and at third-party sites where we have been designated as a potentially responsible party (PRP). A substantial portion of environmental costs will be included in our net sales and cost of sales in future periods pursuant to U.S. Government regulations. At the time a liability is recorded for future environmental costs, we record a receivable for estimated future recovery considered probable through the pricing of products and services to agencies of the U.S. Government, regardless of the contract form (e.g., cost-reimbursable, fixed-price). We continually evaluate the recoverability of our environmental receivables by assessing, among other factors, U.S. Government regulations, our U.S. Government business base and contract mix, our history of receiving reimbursement of such costs, and efforts by some U.S. Government representatives to limit such reimbursement. We include the portion of those environmental costs expected to be allocated to our non-U.S. Government contracts, or that is determined not to be recoverable under U.S. Government contracts, in our cost of sales at the time the liability is established. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the aggregate amount of liabilities recorded relative to environmental matters was $830 million and $864 million , most of which are recorded in other noncurrent liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. We have recorded receivables totaling $721 million and $750 million at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , most of which are recorded in other noncurrent assets on our consolidated balance sheets for the estimated future recovery of these costs, as we consider the recovery probable based on the factors previously mentioned. We project costs and recovery of costs over approximately 20 years . Environmental remediation activities usually span many years, which makes estimating liabilities a matter of judgment because of uncertainties with respect to assessing the extent of the contamination as well as such factors as changing remediation technologies and changing regulatory environmental standards. There are a number of former and present operating facilities that we are monitoring or investigating for potential future remediation. We perform quarterly reviews of the status of our environmental remediation sites and the related liabilities and receivables. Additionally, in our quarterly reviews, we consider these and other factors in estimating the timing and amount of any future costs that may be required for remediation activities, and record a liability when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the loss can be reasonably estimated. The amount of liability recorded is based on our estimate of the costs to be incurred for remediation at a particular site. We do not discount the recorded liabilities, as the amount and timing of future cash payments are not fixed or cannot be reliably determined. We reasonably cannot determine the extent of our financial exposure in all cases as, although a loss may be probable or reasonably possible, in some cases it is not possible at this time to estimate the loss or reasonably possible loss or range of loss. We also pursue claims for recovery of costs incurred or for contribution to site remediation costs against other PRPs, including the U.S. Government, and are conducting remediation activities under various consent decrees, orders, and agreements relating to soil, groundwater, sediment, or surface water contamination at certain sites of former or current operations. Under agreements related to certain sites in California and New York, the U.S. Government reimburses us an amount equal to a percentage, specific to each site, of expenditures for certain remediation activities in the U.S. Government’s capacity as a PRP under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA). In addition to the proceedings and potential proceedings discussed above, California previously established a maximum level of the contaminant hexavalent chromium in drinking water of 10 parts per billion (ppb). This standard was successfully challenged by the California Manufacturers and Technology Association (CMTA) for failure to conduct the required economic feasibility analysis. In response to the court’s ruling, the State Water Resources Control Board (State Board), a branch of the California Environmental Protection Agency, withdrew the hexavalent chromium standard from the published regulations, leaving only the 50 ppb standard for total chromium. The State Board has indicated it will work to re-establish a hexavalent chromium standard. If the standard for hexavalent chromium is re‑established at 10 ppb or above, it will not have a material impact on our existing remediation costs in California. Further, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) is considering whether to regulate hexavalent chromium. California is also reevaluating its existing drinking water standard of 6 ppb for perchlorate, and the U.S. EPA is taking steps to regulate perchlorate in drinking water. If substantially lower standards are adopted, in either California or at the federal level for perchlorate or for hexavalent chromium, we expect a material increase in our estimates for environmental liabilities and the related assets for the portion of the increased costs that are probable of future recovery in the pricing of our products and services for the U.S. Government. The amount that would be allocable to our non-U.S. Government contracts or that is determined not to be recoverable under U.S. Government contracts would be expensed, which may have a material effect on our earnings in any particular interim reporting period. Letters of Credit, Surety Bonds and Third-Party Guarantees We have entered into standby letters of credit and surety bonds issued on our behalf by financial institutions, and we have directly issued guarantees to third parties primarily relating to advances received from customers and the guarantee of future performance on certain contracts. Letters of credit and surety bonds generally are available for draw down in the event we do not perform. In some cases, we may guarantee the contractual performance of third parties such as venture partners. We had total outstanding letters of credit, surety bonds, and third-party guarantees aggregating $3.4 billion and $3.6 billion at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . Third-party guarantees do not include guarantees to subsidiaries and other consolidated entities. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , third-party guarantees totaled approximately $905 million and $850 million , of which approximately 66% and 65% related to guarantees of contractual performance of ventures to which we currently are or previously were a party. This amount represents our estimate of the maximum amount we would expect to incur upon the contractual non-performance of the venture, venture partners or divested businesses. Generally, we also have cross-indemnities in place that may enable us to recover amounts that may be paid on behalf of a venture partner. |

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following (in millions): March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 Total Level 1 Level 2 Total Level 1 Level 2 Assets Mutual funds $ 984 $ 984 $ — $ 978 $ 978 $ — U.S. Government securities 112 — 112 105 — 105 Other securities 180 65 115 144 28 116 Derivatives 20 — 20 22 — 22 Liabilities Derivatives 78 — 78 61 — 61 Assets measured at NAV (a) Other commingled funds 19 18 (a) Net Asset Value (NAV) is the total value of the fund divided by the number of the fund’s shares outstanding. Substantially all assets measured at fair value, other than derivatives, represent investments held in a separate trust to fund certain of our non-qualified deferred compensation plans and are recorded in other noncurrent assets on our consolidated balance sheets. The fair values of mutual funds and certain other securities are determined by reference to the quoted market price per unit in active markets multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs. The fair values of U.S. Government and other securities are determined using pricing models that use observable inputs (e.g., interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals), bids provided by brokers or dealers or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics. The fair values of derivative instruments, which consist of foreign currency exchange forward and interest rate swap contracts, are primarily determined based on the present value of future cash flows using model-derived valuations that use observable inputs such as interest rates, credit spreads and foreign currency exchange rates. The derivatives outstanding at both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 consist of foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and foreign currency related contract embedded derivatives. We use derivative instruments principally to reduce our exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We do not enter into or hold derivative instruments for speculative trading purposes. We transact business globally and are subject to risks associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates. We enter into foreign currency hedges such as forward and option contracts that change in value as foreign currency exchange rates change. These contracts hedge forecasted foreign currency transactions in order to mitigate fluctuations in our earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We designate foreign currency hedges as cash flow hedges. We also are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. For fixed rate borrowings, we may use variable interest rate swaps, effectively converting fixed rate borrowings to variable rate borrowings, in order to reduce the amount of interest paid. These swaps are designated as fair value hedges. For variable rate borrowings, we may use fixed interest rate swaps, effectively converting variable rate borrowings to fixed rate borrowings, in order to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes on earnings. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges. We also may enter into derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges and do not qualify for hedge accounting, which are intended to mitigate certain economic exposures. The aggregate notional amount of our outstanding interest rate swaps at both March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $1.3 billion . The aggregate notional amount of our outstanding foreign currency hedges at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $3.4 billion and $3.5 billion . The fair values of our outstanding interest rate swaps and foreign currency hedges at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were not significant. Derivative instruments did not have a material impact on net earnings and comprehensive income during the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and March 25, 2018 . Substantially all of our derivatives are designated for hedge accounting. In addition to the financial instruments listed in the table above, we hold other financial instruments, including debt and commercial paper. The estimated fair value of our outstanding debt and commercial paper based on Level 2 inputs was $16.3 billion and $15.4 billion at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 . The outstanding principal amount of debt and commercial paper was $15.1 billion and $15.3 billion at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , excluding unamortized discounts and issuance costs of $1.2 billion |

Equity [Abstract] | |
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY | STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Repurchases of Common Stock During the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , we repurchased 1.0 million shares of our common stock for $284 million , some of which was settled subsequent to the end of the first quarter. The total remaining authorization for future common share repurchases under our share repurchase program was $2.7 billion as of March 31, 2019 . As we repurchase our common shares, we reduce common stock for the $1 of par value of the shares repurchased, with the excess purchase price over par value recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. If additional paid-in capital is reduced to zero, we record the remainder of the excess purchase price over par value as a reduction of retained earnings. Due to the volume of repurchases and the prices at which these were made, additional paid-in capital was reduced to zero , with the remainder of the excess purchase price over par value of $237 million and $274 million recorded as a reduction to retained earnings during the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and March 25, 2018 . Dividends We declared cash dividends totaling $623 million ( $2.20 per share) and $573 million ( $2.00 per share) during the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and March 25, 2018 . Dividends paid during the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and March 25, 2018 are higher than dividends declared due to dividend-equivalents paid to holders of RSUs. These dividend-equivalents are accrued during the RSU vesting period and are paid upon the vesting of the RSU. Restricted Stock Unit Grants During the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , we granted certain employees approximately 0.6 million RSUs with a grant date fair value of $303.60 per RSU. The grant date fair value of these RSUs is equal to the closing market price of our common stock on the grant date less a discount to reflect the delay in payment of dividend-equivalent cash payments that are made only upon vesting, which is generally three years from the grant date. We recognize the grant date fair value of RSUs, less estimated forfeitures, as compensation expense ratably over the requisite service period, which is shorter than the vesting period if the employee is retirement eligible on the date of grant or will become retirement eligible before the end of the vesting period. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss Changes in the balance of AOCL, net of tax, consisted of the following (in millions): Postretirement Benefit Plans Other, net AOCL Balance at December 31, 2018 $ (14,254 ) $ (67 ) $ (14,321 ) Other comprehensive income before reclassifications — (5 ) (5 ) Amounts reclassified from AOCL Recognition of net actuarial losses (a) 287 — 287 Amortization of net prior service credits (a) (60 ) — (60 ) Other — 5 5 Total reclassified from AOCL 227 5 232 Total other comprehensive income 227 — 227 Balance at March 31, 2019 $ (14,027 ) $ (67 ) $ (14,094 ) Balance at December 31, 2017 $ (12,559 ) $ 20 $ (12,539 ) Other comprehensive income before reclassifications — 55 55 Amounts reclassified from AOCL Recognition of net actuarial losses (a) 364 — 364 Amortization of net prior service credits (a) (64 ) — (64 ) Other — 3 3 Total reclassified from AOCL 300 3 303 Total other comprehensive income 300 58 358 Reclassification of income tax effects from tax reform (b) (2,396 ) (12 ) (2,408 ) Balance at March 25, 2018 $ (14,655 ) $ 66 $ (14,589 ) (a) Reclassifications from AOCL related to our postretirement benefit plans were recorded as a component of net periodic benefit cost for each period presented (see “ Note 7 – Postretirement Benefit Plans ”).

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
OTHER | OTHER Changes in Estimates Significant estimates and assumptions are made in estimating contract sales and costs, including the profit booking rate. At the outset of a long-term contract, we identify and monitor risks to the achievement of the technical, schedule and cost aspects of the contract, as well as variable consideration, and assess the effects of those risks on our estimates of sales and total costs to complete the contract. The estimates consider the technical requirements (e.g., a newly-developed product versus a mature product), the schedule and associated tasks (e.g., the number and type of milestone events) and costs (e.g., material, labor, subcontractor, overhead, general and administrative and the estimated costs to fulfill our industrial cooperation agreements, sometimes referred to as offset or localization agreements, required under certain contracts with international customers). The initial profit booking rate of each contract considers risks surrounding the ability to achieve the technical requirements, schedule and costs in the initial estimated total costs to complete the contract. Profit booking rates may increase during the performance of the contract if we successfully retire risks surrounding the technical, schedule and cost aspects of the contract, which decreases the estimated total costs to complete the contract or may increase the variable consideration we expect to receive on the contract. Conversely, our profit booking rates may decrease if the estimated total costs to complete the contract increase or our estimates of variable consideration we expect to receive decrease. All of the estimates are subject to change during the performance of the contract and may affect the profit booking rate. When estimates of total costs to be incurred on a contract exceed total estimates of the transaction price, a provision for the entire loss is determined at the contract level and is recorded in the period in which the loss is determined. Comparability of our segment sales, operating profit and operating margin may be impacted favorably or unfavorably by changes in profit booking rates on our contracts for which we recognize revenue over time using the percentage-of-completion cost-to-cost method to measure progress towards completion. Increases in the profit booking rates, typically referred to as risk retirements, usually relate to revisions in the estimated total costs to fulfill the performance obligations that reflect improved conditions on a particular contract. Conversely, conditions on a particular contract may deteriorate, resulting in an increase in the estimated total costs to fulfill the performance obligations and a reduction in the profit booking rate. Increases or decreases in profit booking rates are recognized in the current period and reflect the inception-to-date effect of such changes. Segment operating profit and margin may also be impacted favorably or unfavorably by other items, which may or may not impact sales. Favorable items may include the positive resolution of contractual matters, cost recoveries on severance and restructuring charges, insurance recoveries and gains on sales of assets. Unfavorable items may include the adverse resolution of contractual matters; restructuring charges, except for significant severance actions, which are excluded from segment operating results; reserves for disputes; certain asset impairments; and losses on sales of certain assets. Our consolidated net adjustments not related to volume, including net profit booking rate adjustments and other matters, increased segment operating profit by approximately $565 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 and $420 million during the quarter ended March 25, 2018 . These adjustments increased net earnings by approximately $446 million ( $1.57 per share) during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 and $332 million ( $1.15 per share) during the quarter ended March 25, 2018 . We recognized net sales from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods of approximately $670 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 and $415 million during the quarter ended March 25, 2018 , which primarily relate to changes in profit booking rates that impacted revenue. We are responsible for a program to design, develop and construct a ground-based radar. The program has experienced performance issues for which we have periodically accrued reserves. During the quarter ending March 31, 2019 , we revised our estimated costs to complete the program and recorded a charge of approximately $50 million ( $38 million , or $0.13 per share, after tax) at our RMS business segment, which resulted in cumulative losses of approximately $195 million on this program as of March 31, 2019 . We may continue to experience issues related to customer requirements and our performance under this contract and have to record additional charges. However, based on the losses previously recorded and our current estimate of the sales and costs to complete the program, at this time we do not anticipate that additional losses, if any, would be material to our operating results or financial condition. As previously disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K, we have two commercial satellite programs at our Space business segment for which we have experienced performance issues related to the development and integration of a modernized LM 2100 satellite platform. These programs are for the delivery of three satellites in total, including one that launched in February 2019 and one that launched in April 2019. We have periodically revised our estimated costs to complete these developmental commercial programs. During the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , we recorded losses of approximately $20 million ( $15 million , or $0.05 per share, after tax), which resulted in cumulative losses of approximately $410 million for these programs . While these losses reflect our estimated total losses on the programs, we will continue to incur unrecoverable general and administrative costs each period until we complete the contract for the third satellite. While we have launched two satellites from one program, the third satellite program remains developmental and further challenges in the delivery and integration of new satellite technology, anomalies discovered during system testing requiring repair or rework, further schedule delays, and penalties could require that we record additional loss reserves which could be material to our operating results. We are late to the contract delivery schedule for the third satellite. If we are not able to deliver the third satellite by the contract termination date, the customer could seek to exercise a termination right under the contract, in which case we would have to refund the payments we have received and pay certain penalties. However, we think that it is not probable that the customer will seek to exercise any termination rights. As previously disclosed in our 2018 Form 10-K, we are responsible for designing, developing and installing an upgraded turret for the Warrior Capability Sustainment Program at our MFC business segment. As of March 31, 2019 , cumulative losses remain at approximately $140 million . We may continue to experience issues related to customer requirements and our performance under this contract and have to record additional reserves. However, based on the losses already recorded and our current estimate of the sales and costs to complete the program, at this time we do not anticipate that additional losses, if any, would be material to our operating results or financial condition. Backlog Backlog (i.e., unfulfilled or remaining performance obligations) represents the sales we expect to recognize for our products and services for which control has not yet transferred to the customer. For our cost-reimbursable and fixed-priced-incentive contracts, the estimated consideration we expect to receive pursuant to the terms of the contract may exceed the contractual award amount. The estimated consideration is determined at the outset of the contract and is continuously reviewed throughout the contract period. In determining the estimated consideration, we consider the risks related to the technical, schedule and cost impacts to complete the contract and an estimate of any variable consideration. Periodically, we review these risks and may increase or decrease backlog accordingly. As the risks on such contracts are successfully retired, the estimated consideration from customers may be reduced, resulting in a reduction of backlog without a corresponding recognition of sales. As of March 31, 2019 , our ending backlog was $133.5 billion . We expect to recognize approximately 37% of our backlog over the next 12 months and approximately 65% over the next 24 months as revenue, with the remainder recognized thereafter. Severance and Restructuring Charges During the second quarter of 2018, we recorded charges totaling $96 million ( $76 million , or $0.26 per share, after tax) related to certain severance and restructuring actions at our RMS business segment. We expect to recover a portion of the severance and restructuring charges through the pricing of our products and services to the U.S. Government and other customers in future periods, which will be included in RMS’ operating results. As of the end of the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , we have paid approximately $50 million in severance payments associated with these actions. Income Taxes Our effective income tax rates were 12.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , and 14.9% for the quarter ended March 25, 2018 . The rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 benefited from additional tax deductions based on proposed tax regulations released on March 4, 2019, which clarified that FMS sales qualify for foreign derived intangible income treatment. Approximately $65 million , or $0.23 per share, of this benefit was recorded discretely because it relates to the prior year. The rates for both periods benefited from tax deductions for dividends paid to our defined contribution plans with an employee stock ownership plan feature, tax deductions for foreign derived intangible income related to commercial sales, tax deductions for employee equity awards, and the research and development tax credit. Sale of Customer Receivables On occasion, our customers may seek deferred payment terms to purchase our products. In connection with these transactions, we may, at our customer’s request, enter into arrangements for the non-recourse sale of customer receivables to unrelated third–party financial institutions. For accounting purposes, these transactions are not discounted and are treated as a sale of receivables as we have no continuing involvement. The sale proceeds from the financial institutions are reflected in our operating cash flows on the statement of cash flows. We sold customer receivables of $104 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 and $103 million during the quarter ended March 25, 2018 . There were no gains or losses related to sales of these receivables. Short-Term Debt and Commercial Paper As of March 31, 2019 , we had $1.3 billion of short-term borrowings due within one year, consisting of $900 million of debt scheduled to mature in November 2019 and $400 million of commercial paper borrowings with a weighted average rate of 2.55% . As of December 31, 2018 , we had $1.5 billion of short-term borrowings due within one year, consisting of $900 million of debt scheduled to mature in November 2019 and $600 million of commercial paper borrowings with a weighted average rate of 2.89% . All of our commercial paper borrowings have maturities of up to three months or less from the date of issuance. |

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , as amended, which requires lessees to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for most lease arrangements and expands disclosures about leasing arrangements for both lessees and lessors, among other items. We adopted ASU 2016-02 using the optional transition method whereby we applied the new lease requirements under ASU 2016-02 through a cumulative-effect adjustment, which after completing our implementation analysis, resulted in no adjustment to our January 1, 2019 beginning retained earnings balance. On January 1, 2019, we recognized approximately $1.0 billion of ROU operating lease assets and approximately $1.1 billion of operating lease liabilities, including noncurrent operating lease liabilities of approximately $830 million as a result of adopting this standard. The difference between ROU operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities was primarily due to previously accrued rent expense relating to periods prior to January 1, 2019. As part of our adoption, we elected all of the available practical expedients with the exception of the practical expedient permitting the use of hindsight when determining the lease term and assessing impairment of ROU assets. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on our operating results or cash flows. The comparative periods have not been restated for the adoption of ASU 2016-02. Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) , which among other things, eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our operating results, financial position or cash flows. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Topic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements For Defined Benefit Plans . The new standard modifies the annual disclosure requirements for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans by removing and adding certain disclosures for these plans. The guidance is effective for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2020 and requires disclosure changes to be presented on a retrospective basis.

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE | We compute basic and diluted earnings per common share by dividing net earnings by the respective weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the periods presented. Our calculation of diluted earnings per common share also includes the dilutive effects for the assumed vesting of outstanding restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance stock units (PSUs) and exercise of outstanding stock options based on the treasury stock method. |
INVENTORY COSTS FOR CONTRACTS | Costs incurred to fulfill a customer contract in advance of the contract being awarded are included in inventories as work-in-process if we determine that those costs relate directly to a customer contract or to an anticipated customer contract that we can specifically identify and contract award is probable, the costs generate or enhance resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations, and the costs are recoverable (referred to as pre-contract costs). Pre-contract costs that are initially capitalized in inventory are generally recognized as cost of sales consistent with the transfer of products and services to the customer upon the receipt of the anticipated contract. All other pre-contract costs, including start-up costs, are expensed as incurred. |
LEASES | We evaluate whether our contractual arrangements contain leases at the inception of such arrangements. Specifically, we consider whether we can control the underlying asset and have the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits or outputs from the asset. Substantially all of our leases are long-term operating leases with fixed payment terms. We do not have significant financing leases. Our right-of-use (ROU) operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and our operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments. ROU operating lease assets are recorded in other noncurrent assets in our consolidated balance sheet. Operating lease liabilities are recorded in other current liabilities or other noncurrent liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet based on their contractual due dates. Both the ROU operating lease asset and liability are recognized as of the lease commencement date at the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate that can readily be determined. Therefore, we use a discount rate based on our incremental borrowing rate, which is determined using our credit rating and information available as of the commencement date. ROU operating lease assets include lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date and exclude lease incentives. Our operating lease agreements may include options to extend the lease term or terminate it early. We include options to extend or terminate leases in the ROU operating lease asset and liability when it is reasonably certain we will exercise these options. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in cost of sales on our consolidated statement of earnings. |
