2007 Lockheedi mudel 12 Electra Junior, rohkem tuntud kui Lockheed 12 või L-12, on 1930. aastate lõpu kaheksakohaline kuue reisijaga täismetallist kahemootoriline transpordilennuk, mis on mõeldud kasutamiseks väikestele lennufirmadele, ettevõtetele ja jõukatele eraisikutele. Lockheedi mudeli 10 Electra vähendatud versioon Lockheed 12 ei olnud lennukina populaarne, kuid seda kasutati laialdaselt ettevõtte ja valitsuse transpordina. Mitmeid neist kasutati ka uute lennundustehnoloogiate katsetamiseks.
