Top Gun in Fallon Nevada

Mayor Ken Tedford of City of Fallon, NV talks briefly about The Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center (NSAWC) also known as Top Gun thanks to the popular movie.

Naval Air Station (NAS) Fallon is located in the Lahontan Valley of west-central Nevada, approximately 70 miles east of Reno and six miles southeast of the city of Fallon.

The Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center (NSAWC) was formed in July 1996 by the BRAC-driven consolidation of the Naval Strike Warfare Center (NSWC or Strike University), the Naval Fighter Weapons School (NFWS or Top Gun) and the Carrier Airborne Early Warning Weapons School (CAEWWS or Top Dome). The Center is an echelon two command reporting directly to the Chief of Naval Operations, and is the primary authority for graduate level aviation tactical development and training. NSAWC assets include 40 aircraft and over 1,000 personnel including contract range and aircraft maintenance personnel.

NAS Fallon was established as an Army airfield during World War II. The airfield was deactivated for several years after the war, and was reactivated in 1951 as a Navy Auxiliary Air Station. During the 1950's the facility was used jointly by the Navy and Air Force, and the runway was extended to provide the station with the longest runway at a Naval Air Station. Construction of new airfield structures during the 1970's and 1980's added a parallel runway, a new air traffic control tower, and new avionics facilities.

Naval Air Station Fallon traces its origins to 1942, when the Civil Aviation Administration and the Army Air Corps began construction of four airfields in the Nevada desert. As part of the Western Defense Program, initiated to repel an expected Japanese attack on the west coast, runways and lighting systems were built in Winnemucca, Minden, Lovelock and Fallon.

In the early part of the 20th century, Central Nevada became an epicenter of hope and prosperity due to the wealthy mining operations in the towns of Tonopah and Goldfield. Prospectors and miners felt another bonanza was nearby, some 20 miles east in an area known as Cactus Range. This historically undeveloped landscape became the backdrop for settlers and prospectors that followed their dreams to strike it rich.
In 1941, the Department of Defense annexed three million acres to create the largest, fighter pilot and training range in the Air Force, the Nevada Test and Training Range, managed by Nellis Air Force Base. Cactus Range fell within this boundary and the miners relocated. For more than 60 years this land that the miners based their hopes on has been protected and undisturbed. In 2004, Nellis Air Force Base escorted members of two families to visit the sites they once knew. Marguerite Fuetsch Purcell and Jackie Elder Thompson, daughters of Cactus Range miners, disclose stories of their days in Goldfield and their families dreams, hardships and struggles on the Cactus Range.
