The large Muir Army Airfield Army National Guard base houses a number of units including the Eastern Army Aviation Training Site (EAATS), the second largest helicopter training facility in the United States. This unit operates the UH-1H, CH-47D and UH-60A in the aircrew training role.

Also here are the 2-104 AVN which also operates the UH-1H, and a further Air Cavalry unit which operated the Cobra and Kiowa as of early 2001. The base also has a couple of fixed-wing units. Muir Army Airfield at the Gap currently accommodates 75 helicopters and three fixed-wing aircraft, conducting about 70,000 take-offs and landings annually.
