A $16 million indoor small arms range at Pease Air National Guard Base in New Hampshire will enhance training for the 157th Air Refueling Wing. Approved in the Fiscal Year 2026 National Defense Authorization Act, the facility will replace an outdated outdoor range, doubling training capacity from seven to 14 lanes. It will enable year-round instruction and allow for low-light qualifications, while addressing infrastructure challenges and improving safety with advanced features.
