Environmental Assessment of the Long Endurance Multi-Intelligence Vehicle (LEMV) Program

Abstract

The US Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command (USASMDC/ARSTRAT) proposes to expand the integration, operation, and testing of LEMV hybrid airships at JB MDL. The LEMV requires a hangar of adequate size and height to house the inflated hybrid airship, plus office and shop space for engineers, testers, maintenance and assembly crews, and equipment/tool storage areas. The LEMV will also require airfields and airspace for test and training flights. Up to 3 LEMVs would be integrated and tested annually. The Proposed Action for the EA is to provide facilities and airfields for the LEMV integration and testing.
