![]() There will be the construction of utility corridors to be able to put down additional cabling to improve the overall communication architecture within the missile-link complex. It'll be very similar in terms of the footprint. I think from the casual observer when the final construction is completed. So essentially, there'll be no “holes in the ground” for these launch facilities. Kelly: Of the 80+ Minuteman silos already in place in the Nebraska panhandle, what changes will be made within those individual sites to prepare for the Sentinel weapons and modernize those facilities.Ĭol Stoppel: We're really trying to use the exact same footprint that we started back in in the 60s. It’ll go on for approximately the next five years across the missile complex. We expect it to be able to start probably in the 2024-25 timeframe. That's where particularly Wyoming, Nebraska, and Colorado will, we'll see a lot of this effort. The predominance of a lot of the construction activities, however, it will be in the missile complex. We would expect to start construction probably next year at F.E. Then there's an actual design and being able to translate that into a physical design that a contractor could later construct. There's a planning piece, being able to understand what is the true requirement and nature and capability that you need to have. Chris Stoppel: We feel at the Air Force, this is the right time to be able to do a weapon system replacement of the legacy of Minuteman III. ![]() Describe what phase of the project is underway right now when it comes to Wyoming, Colorado, and Nebraska.Ĭol. He says from the point of view of most Panhandle residents, the missile silos themselves won’t look much different.īill Kelly, Nebraska Public Media: We've known for some time the Minuteman missiles were due for replacement. He calls it “a once-in-every-other-generation opportunity” for a civil engineer. Recently the Air Force contractor Northrop Grumman completed testing of motors powering new Sentinel missiles in Utah.īill Kelly with Nebraska Public Media News spoke with the project coordinator, Colonel Chris Stoppel, with the Air Force Civil Engineer Center. Environmental assessments will review the impact of construction and new facilities on the local environment. In addition to upgrading the massive underground concrete silos, the Air Force will purchase additional land to locate new telecommunications towers. Hastings predicted a "paradigm shift" in the mindset of humanity owing to the existence of alien life.The multi-billion-dollar project is the first structural overhaul of land-based nuclear launch facilities since the 1960s. Hastings suggested the presence of such phenomena meant that aliens were monitoring our weapons, and perhaps warning us - "a sign to Washington and Moscow that we are playing with fire," as he was quoted in the Telegraph. Several of the ex-servicemembers speaking Monday said when they'd brought their concern of such appearances to superiors, they'd been told it was "top secret" or that it "didn't happen." The incidents were never officially explained. He and his team also witnessed various lights moving silently in the sky, of one which was "shedding something like molten metal." Another shined a beam of light down towards them. ![]() Halt found indentations in the ground, broken branches, and low-level background radiation. Two nights later, Halt investigated another sighting near the base when he was told by the base commander, "It's back." They were observing it for a period of time, and then it very quickly and silently vanished at high speed." Halt said they reported approaching a triangular craft, "approximately three meters on a side, dark metallic in appearance with strange markings.
