Model 12 Electra Junior был несколько меньше Model 10 и предназначался для рынка местных перевозок. Но большая часть самолетов использовалась корпоративными владельцами, правительствами и ВВС других государств.
На фотографии Lockheed 12-A из компании "Santa Maria Airlines". На Electra Junior стояло двухкилевое оперение, впервые внедренное Кларенсом Джонсоном на Lockheed 10 Electra.

A commercial Lockheed 12-A impressed for service with the US Navy during World War II and based in the UK. This is believed to be the aircraft later acquired by Sidney Cotton as G-AGTL.

В годы Второй мировой войны Model 10 и Model 12 несли службу в различных подразделениях ВВС США. Высокая крейсерская скорость Model 12 (на снимке) делала его идеальным штабным транспортным самолетом.

THE FIRST FOR THIS COUNTRY: Lord Beaverbrook's new Lockheed "12" photographed at Burbank, California. The "12," in standard form, is a six-passenger transport, which, with two 400 h.p. Pratt and Whitney Wasp Juniors, cruises at 213 m.p.h. at about 10,000 ft., and is, in fact, a smaller version of the well-known Electra.

Lockheed 12A G-AEOI was registered on March 10, 1937 and owned by Viscount Furness. On December 12, 1939 it was impressed into the RAF and became X9316. Surviving the war, ’OI was purchased by the Shell company of Venezuela in February 1946 and became YV-P-AED; later changed to YV-C-TAD. On its introduction into service, the Model 12A was one of the fastest transports in the world. Power was normally supplied by two 450 h.p. Pratt & Whitney Wasp Juniors.

This RAF Lockheed 12A was an ex-Dutch aircraft, one of three serialled LV760-762 (although the serial looks more like LV700 - allocated to a Spitfire LF VIIF!). It was photographed at Fenni on May 8, 1944.

The Lockheed 12A displayed at the Veteransmuseum at Egeskov Castle was last in use as OY-AOV and was operated on contract as a target-tug for the Danish Navy. It had been built in 1941 for the Dutch East Indies Airways, subsequently being pressed into military service in the area, and has been restored in Dutch military markings.

Several of the Dutch Model 12s that survived the war eventually went into service with the Indonesian Air Force, which was still operating the example illustrated in 1970.

Although of marginal quality, this spectacular photo reveals a variety of historical information. The three B-25Js are believed to be the first Mitchell's acquired by the FAV, a contention supported by the fact that they bear roundels under both wings without the distinctive Venezuelan coloured wings added later. This is an actual photo, not a composite, and the P-47D is making a very low pass over the FAV's solitary Lockheed 12A recon aircraft.

Both the USAAF and the US Navy acquired modified Lockheed 12-As for use as trainers in tricycle landing techniques. The illustration shows the Air Force's C-40B.

Flight 1939-10 / Flight

BLIND-LANDING EXPERIMENTS: The Lockheed C40-B which will be used by the U.S. Army Air Corps for instrument-landing experiments. The machine weighs 9,200 lb. and carries a pilot and four test observers. It appears that the undercarriage is fixed; certainly this is true of the nose wheel, which is carefully faired. It will be noted that a conventional tail wheel is also fitted as a precautionary measure.

Этот неуклюжий вариант Model 12, носивший обозначение C-40B, использовался ВВС США для испытаний трехстоечного шасси. Позднее самолет применяли в качестве радиолаборатории. Аналогичный самолет XJO-3 использовался ВМС США для палубных испытаний трехстоечного шасси.
