Lockheed said its Space Systems unit reported an operating profit of $156 million on $1.85 billion in net sales for the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to $127 million in operating profit on $1.80 billion of net sales for the same quarter of 2004. For all of 2005 Lockheed had a net profit of $609 million on $6.82 billion in sales, compared to $489 million and $6.36 billion in profiles and sales, respectively, for 2004.

Full-year profits increased because of improved performance by the company's Atlas launch vehicle program and increased government sales by its satellite unit.
