Naval Air Station Fallon, Nevada. Base visit - November 2019

Naval Air Station Fallon, Van Voorhis Field, is located southeast of the city of Fallon in western Nevada. It is the United States Navy's premier air‑to‑air and air‑to‑ground training facility. Since 1996 it has been home to the U.S. Navy‑Fighter Weapons School (TOPGUN) which was previously located at N.A.S. Miramar, California. Fallon is also home to the Naval Aviation Warfighting Development Center (NAWDC) which includes TOPGUN, the Carrier Airborne Early Warning Weapons School (CAEWWS) and the Navy Rotary Weapons School. The base is also home to VFC‑13 “Saints” Fighter Squadron Composite, who fly the Northrop F‑5 to provide dissimilar adversary training for the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps and the Canadian Forces.

At Fallon the U.S. Navy maintains the Heritage Air Park, which is only accessible with a base pass.

On the day of the visit poor weather conditions restricted flying operations, so disappointingly no photos were obtained from the runway threshold. Click on a Photo to activate the link. All photographs open in a new window
