    U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Suzanne Lamar, Site Activation Task Force Detachment 9 commander, briefs General Officer Steering Group attendees during a tour of the Sentinel Stage Processing Facility at Vandenberg Space Force Base, Calif., Dec. 1, 2025. Lamar, who leads the transition from the Minuteman III to the Sentinel system at Vandenberg SFB, emphasized the program's importance, stating, "The Sentinel program represents more than just a technological upgrade; it's a recommitment to the nation's nuclear deterrence strategy. This isn't just about replacing missiles. It's about ensuring the safety, security, and effectiveness of our nuclear deterrent for generations to come." As the Air Force transitions from the legacy Minuteman III system, Vandenberg SFB's Western Range will continue to play a critical role as the primary testing ground for the Air Force Global Strike Command's next-generation ICBM architecture, reinforcing the nation's strategic deterrence mission.
