The Remote Launch Operations Bunker is currently filled with a historic photo gallery, with some rooms left as they were more then 45 years ago. This bunker was designed to take a 10 mega-ton nuclear warhead near miss (1 mile away) and still function. Enter the bunker down the 75 foot tunnel and pass through 2 equipment and 2 personnel entrance blast doors. Explore the cable vault, arms room, crypto room and missileer living quarters, and lets not forget the multiple suspended (from the ceiling) rooms in the bunker, this experience will leave you chilled (50 Degrees) and amazed. The tour then goes on top of the bunker for a breath taking view of the 16 silo nuclear missile field and the red river valley. After examining the escape hatch, exhaust and fresh air intake tower, its out to the16 silo Nike Sprint Missile Field and then a look at our built to scale 27 foot Sprint Missile! Did I forget to mention the 75 light poles with unique lighting use to keep the site looking like day.
