    Ribbon Cutting for Range Control Complex at China Lake

    Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division celebrated a major milestone Sept. 23, 2025, cutting the ribbon on the new Range Control Complex at Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake, California.

    Delivered by Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Southwest and its Resident Officer in Charge of Construction China Lake, the state-of-the-art complex consists of four separate facilities that will serve as NAWCWD’s operational hub for range testing and evaluation, directly supporting their mission to deliver cutting-edge capabilities to the Fleet.

    The Range Control Complex is comprised of the Range Control Center, Range Engineering and Operations Building, Range Instrumentation Support Facility, and the Range Fire Control/Missile Assembly Building—four specialized facilities designed to provide advanced command, control, and coordination across China Lake’s 1.1 million acres of ranges. The $242 million project restores and modernizes capabilities lost during the July 2019 Ridgecrest earthquakes.
