Missile Silo Project
We are preparing for the installation of the Ground Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD). This is the modernization of the ICBMs which are currently maintained and operated by the 90th Missile Wing at FE Warren Air Force Base. America is investing $86 billion into this upgrade and the Air Force has chosen Northrop Grumman as the primary contractor to deliver this important project.

Northrop Grumman and the Air Force will be in need of all types and sizes of local business to support this lengthy project. Businesses include local restaurants, gas stations, auto repair, tire replacement up to and including machinery, heavy equipment repair and storage facilities. These are just a few of the many businesses they will need assistance from.
