Abstract:

The US Air Force USAF proposes to establish a fiber optic line FOL route on the Nellis Air Force Range NAFR complex to transmit data generated by Air Force training, testing and evaluation programs related to air- and ground-based systems. The proposed action would provide a route for FOL communication between the Indian Springs Air Force Auxiliary Field AFAF and the Cedar Pass Facility in Cactus Flat, on the NAFR North Range. A FOL network is currently in place from Nellis AFB to Indian Springs AFAF, and on the NAFR North Range.
