Fallon Range Training Complex, Military training complex in Churchill County, Nevada

Fallon Range Training Complex is a military training facility in Nevada that covers a large area of desert terrain. It contains multiple ranges where aircraft and flight crews practice operations in realistic conditions.

Target Baker (16-21) was documented in 1957, and in 1958 the Navy gave up the airspace and target for B-20 to meet Civil Aeronautics Authority airway requirements, replacing it with Target B-21 and a proposed 4,960-acre withdrawal. The 1986 Military Lands Withdrawal Act (Public Law 99-606) reserved lands for Navy bombing, missile firing and tactical training. The Joint Tactical Combat Training System was installed in 2001.

The complex is run under the Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center at Fallon, which uses it for Carrier Air Wing Training, Advanced Instructor Training and Fleet Replacement Squadron Detachment Training. The ranges also host joint exercises and tactics development, and the whole area is instrumented with a Tactical Aircrew Combat Training System.

Visitors should know that this is an active military complex with limited public access. It is best to check current conditions and any required permissions before planning a visit.

Target Bravo 20, at Lone Rock in the Carson Sink, is the only range in the complex cleared for 2,000-pound laser-guided weapons. The complex also runs thirty-seven real or simulated radars as an integrated air defense system across the Dixie Valley area.
