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.

Dixie Valley Memories
This program came into being in 2004 as a result of a call to the Churchill County Museum from cliff Creger, Naval Air Station (NAS) Fallon Archaeologist. Under federal law, the State Historic Preservation Office advised NAS Fallon that they needed to produce a project as mitigation for the Navy's effects of the Dixie Valley area. The result of this effort is a mini-documentary that shares the history of Dixie Valley with the public.
We would like to acknowledge the following people who made this fine program possible: David Ellis, Patricia Stark Getto, and Alberta Ellis Merritt. Also Churchill County Museum Staff Members: Jane Pieplow, Director, Andrea Rossman, Photographer Curator and program narrator.
Musicians: James Anderson, Keyboards, Robert Doc Quam, fiddle,, Polly List, keyboards, Jane Pieplow guitar.
Videographer and Editor: Mark Gandolfo, Gandolfo Photography.
Funded through a generous grant from: US Navy/NAS Fallon, Nevada.
When the settlers looked for land in the Lahontan Valley in the early 1900's, a number of these hardy souls were attracted to Dixie Valley, Nevada, a site about 70 miles east of Fallon onto day's Highway 50. Isolated, but blessed with water from many artesian wells and natural springs, a number of settlers moved in and improved on their homesteads.
In between the days of hard work on the ranch, local residents' spirits were often lifted by community gatherings-potluck suppers, music, dancing, grade school performances and holiday celebrations.
In the 1800's, the United States navy began a buyout of homesteads from families in this valley. One by one, Dixie Valley landholders left the area.
Through vintage photographs and live interviews, this program records some of the memories held by those who lived and grew up in Dixie Valley---those who lived in this close-knit, caring community as they made a lift for themselves and their families in the the Nevada dessert.

Historic 2016-2017 Winter in Fallon, Northern Nevada
Kim Smith
“Winter 2017 brought a lot of water to Nevada…and there’s more to come with the Spring run-off. Now it’s water that’s much needed, but it’s also water that needs to be managed safely.”
“I’m Kim Smith with the Nevada Department of Transportation at the Lahontan Reservoir.”
Rusty D. Jardine, Esq.
General Manager & General Counsel
Truckee-Carson Irrigation District, Fallon
“The story grew for us in January when we started to see an incredible flow in the Carson River. During that period of time, a short period of time, we saw an increase in the Lahontan … of 60 – 70 thousand acre feet. As you look behind me you see a reservoir that contains about 300,000 acre feet…..and when you see that kind of increase at a very short time, that sent up all of the flares.”
With Lahontan Reservoir on the rise, preparation to safely release water began…below the Lahontan Dam is a diversion dam that divides into three sources that provide for water to be distributed throughout the valley; the Carson River channel, the T-line canal and the V-line, which is the foremost carrying canal in the system.
Rusty
“we’re sending the water through the V-line out a wier structure we created, an emergency structure, put together in a very short time, which allows diversion from the V-line across open terrain, across the desert, off out into the southern part of Lahontan Valley to the area of U.S. 95, the highway…and it was at that point that the Department of Transportation came to our aide and provided for massive oversized culverts.”
David Gaskin, P.E.
NDOT Deputy Director
“What we’ve done is install a number of large culverts – we have highway 95 south on the south end of town and we have highway 50 east – and the water has to get under those highways in order to get where it needs to go and prevent the flooding..we’ve had a great collaboration with all the state, local and federal government agencies as well as the local citizens we have farmers and ranchers who have used their own equipment to dig ditches and build berms.
The Governor and toured and saw the situation personally and NDOT has been really involved in this.”
Charles Wolf, P.E.
NDOT Chief Hydraulic Engineer
“Before the flows arrived here from the Truckee diversion dam, there were only enough culverts here to convey the flow from a natural storm event. So when you add an additional 1000 cfs on top of that, you need a lot more conveyance….and it’s kind of difficult to conceptualize 1000 cfs, but what I tell people is it’s 450 thousand gallons every minute, so it’s a tremendous amount of flow….one of the challenges was figuring out how to convey that safely under the roadway.”.”
water was making its way to the 95…and the team had 10 days to ready the roadway…
Thor Dyson
NDOT District Engineer, NW Nevada
“Well, we really were up against the clock…we had a situation out here where construction needed to happen immediately…”
“The contractor worked fast and furiously along with NDOT personnel.”
“The road was completed and the road was open by March 15th, two days ahead of schedule.”
Friday eve of Easter weekend brought a threat of a road washout….
Paul Harmon
NDOT Supervisor Fallon
“I noticed where we had installed some of the box culverts and some of the existing culverts, how high the water was through here…... I wasn’t confident that the road would still be here in the morning. So we did emergency repairs…we were able to dump about 30 yards of riprap into this particular washout basin to be able to prevent the road from eroding anymore…by Monday afternoon, the water actually started receding, and we were able to see that what we did that night definitely worked and kept 95 open through the weekend.”
…the rate of the snowmelt moving forward…is a fluid situation….
Paul
“How fast? Mother Nature knows…we don’t. But it’s something NDOT maintenance and District 2 in particular will continue to monitor.”
Alan Tinney, P.E.
NDOT Division Chief, Stormwater
“After a historic weather season, it’s been a collaborative effort between Federal government, State government, local government and the communities to write this story of protecting Fallon from the flooding as best we can…”
“This is historic, it’s epic, what we’re witnessing today and what we’ve witnessed the last three months.”
“… I’ve looked into the meteorological data going back actually 127 years, and when they started tracking in 1888, and this is the largest water year we’ve had in that 127 years…so I don’t think we’ll see anything like this for a long time again”
“I couldn’t be more proud of our community and that connection. And the State of Nevada, and the support of our Governor. We all came together in order to make this possible.”

Navy Northrop Grumman E-2C Hawkeye Airborne Early Warning (AEW) from Naval Air Station Fallon NV
Navy Northrop Grumman E-2C Hawkeye Airborne Early Warning (AEW) from Naval Air Station Fallon Fallon NV
Salinas California International Airshow 2012 -10
Full Playlist
the Hawkeye will continue in its role as the Navy's primary AEW aircraft for years into the future in the E-2D version.
The latest version of the E-2, the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye, is currently under development and the first two aircraft, Delta One and Delta Two remain in flight testing and several other aircraft are currently undergoing Initial Operational Test and Evaluation with Test and Evaluation Squadron One at [NAS Patuxent River]. The E-2D features an entirely new avionics suite, including the new APY-9 radar, radio suite, mission computer, integrated satellite communications capability, flight management system, improved T56-A-427A turboprop engines, a new tactical glass cockpit and the potential capability for air-to-air refueling. The AN/APY-9 radar features an Active Electronically Scanned Array, which adds electronic scanning to the mechanical rotation of the radar in its radome. The E-2D will include provisions for either one of the pilots to act as a Tactical 4th Operator, who will have access to the full range of the mission's acquired data. The E-2D's first flight occurred on 3 August 2007.[6] On May 8, 2009, an E-2D Advanced Hawkeye used its Cooperative Engagement Capability system to engage an overland cruise missile with a Standard Missile SM-6 fired from another platform in an integrated fire-control system test.[7] Deliveries of initial production E-2Ds to Navy began in 2010.[8]
On 4 February 2010, Delta One conducted the first E-2D carrier landing aboard the USS Harry S. Truman as a part of carrier suitability testing.[9] On 27 September 2011, an E-2D was successfully launched by the prototype Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) at Naval Air Engineering Station Lakehurst.[10][11]

Description
Designed for installation aboard the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye AEW & C aircraft, the Lockheed Martin AN/APY-9 (formerly known as the Advanced Hawkeye Radar - AHR) is an electronically/mechanically scanned AEW & C radar that is described as being 'two generations' ahead of the AN/APS-145 radar installed aboard E-2C/E-2C Hawkeye 2000 platforms and as weighing approximately 998 kg. Other system features include:digital beam forming and excitationSpace-Time Adaptive Processing (STAP)use of monopulse techniques (to improve accuracy)in-beam stagger (to eliminate blind speeds)simultaneous air and sea surface target detectionuse of an open, commercial-off-the-shelf architecture (with modular hardware design)use of a solid-state, silicon carbide-based transmission chainported functionality (maintaining domain knowledge)use of an 'advanced' detection data processor (based around CSP Inc FastCluster 2942 blades and offering increased time on threat, flexible beam management and 'enhanced' target tracking)use of an L-3 Communications Randtron Antenna Systems-sourced Rotodome Antenna Group (RAG)use of an Applied Aerospace Structures Corporation (AASC)-sourced composite rotodomeuse of Northrop Grumman-sourced solid-state power amplifiersuse of a Raytheon-sourced, low-noise, digital receiveruse of a BAE Systems-sourced, co-aligned, active scanning array, Identification Friend-or-Foe (IFF) interrogator.Looking at some of these in more detail, the AN/APY-9's RAG incorporates an 18-channel Advanced Detection System-18 (ADS-18) antenna and a 36-element IFF array, with the whole being housed in the cited AASC rotodome. Here, the ADS-18 antenna is scanned electronically in elevation and both electronically (offering instantaneous 120° sector coverage) and mechanically in azimuth and makes use of an 18-channel rotary coupler as the interface between itself and the radar's inboard electronics.
