Missile Silo Project

Sentinel Deployment & Minuteman III Decommissioning and Disposal Project:
The City of Kimball and the surrounding area are preparing for the installation of the U.S. Air Force’s Sentinel weapon system, formerly known as the Ground Based Strategic Deterrent (GBSD). The Sentinel program will modernize the nation’s land-based intercontinental ballistic missile system by replacing the existing Minuteman III missiles.

F.E. Warren Air Force Base, home to the 90th Missile Wing, plays a central role in the project. Activities related to the Sentinel deployment include on-base construction and renovations at F.E.
Warren Air Force Base and Camp Guernsey, along with off-base infrastructure improvements such as facility upgrades, communications systems, and utility corridor work across the region.

The Air Force and its contractors will coordinate with local and county officials to ensure required permits are obtained and local zoning and regulatory requirements are met as the project moves
forward.
