MQ-1 Launch and Recovery Element Training Operations at Southern California Logistics Airport

MQ-1 Launch and Recovery Element Training Operations at Southern California Logistics Airport

Proposed project would consist of the lease of a 1.67-acre parcel at Southern California Airport (SCLA) for the establishment of a Launch and Recovery Element training site for a Predator unmanned aerial vehicle training mission that would be implemented by the 163rd Reconnaissance Wing (163 RW), a California Air National Guard unit. Ultimately at SCLA, a 25K-sf purpose-built facility, meeting requirements for hangar, administrative, and classroom space would be constructed. Until the construction of a purpose-built facility, the 163 RW would lease an existing hangar facility and utilize 2 to 3 modular buildings for office, administrative, and classroom space. No changes to personnel levels would result from or be required to facilitate the proposed action.
