The Red River Army Depot, also known as the Red River Ordnance Depot, was activated in 1941 as an ammunition storage site. In July 1995, the BRAC Commission recommended realigning Red River Army Depot by moving all maintenance missions, except for those related to the Bradley Fighting Vehicle Series, to other depot maintenance activities. The installation retained its ammunition storage mission, intern training center, civilian training, and rubber production facilities. Part of the TACOM family since 1998, today Red River provides depot maintenance for the Bradley Fighting Vehicle, Multiple Launch Rocket System, and Combat Tactical Wheeled Vehicles. Its electronics repair facility supports the Bradley, Multiple Launch Rocket System, and a variety of missile support and aircraft armament subsystems. The depot is also the worldwide center for Patriot and Hawk missile re-certification. www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/red-river.htm
