Airmen and Guardians from Vandenberg SFB supported Air Force Global Strike Command by conducting a test launch of an unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile May 20 at 12:01 a.m. Pacific Time from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California.

This routine launch, designated Glory Trip 256, was scheduled years ago, and is not in response to world events. It acts as a comprehensive operational test, designed to evaluate both the weapon system and the personnel who maintain it in a highly-controlled testing environment.

“Our ability to conduct these rigorous, realistic tests is foundational to our national security,” said Gen. S.L. Davis, commander of Air Force Global Strike Command. “This launch verifies the health and readiness of our ICBM force, confirming the capability of every component of the ICBM enterprise, from our operators to the weapon system itself, to execute the mission.”
