military, bunker, nuclear weapons/warheads storage
In the aircraft shelters were F-104s and later F-16s fully armed with B-61s and ready to rock and roll. Fortunately the nuclear QRA is currently nonops. Its estimated however that appx 22 B-61s are still stored in the W3S vaults in the floors of several shelters on the base.
