Pacific Ranges

Abstract

In accordance with Department of Defense Directive 3200.11., this project funds the overhead/institutional costs required to sustain the Major Range and Test Facility Base (MRTFB) capabilities at the Pacific Ranges and Facilities located at China Lake and Point Mugu, CA. These facilities provide safe, instrumented, controlled open air testing utilizing the Land Range, Sea Range, ECR, Air Vehicle Modification and Instrumentation, and San Nicholas Island. The funding increase from FY 2017 to FY 2018 supports the sustainment of six new advanced high fidelity threat emitters at NAWC-WD ranges (five open loop Active Emitter Scan Array and one closed loop Passive Emitter Scan Array) operating in the C and S Radio Frequency Bands and E, F & G Electronic Warfare Bands.
