USAF: Another Round of Laser Training Will Target Farallon

USAF: Another Round of Laser Training Will Target Farallon

Guam - The Air Force will conduct laser training exercises on the island of Farallon de Medinilla from 7 a.m.-1 p.m. Dec. 4.

The general location of this activity will be on the island of Farallon de Medinilla Training Area on a 10 nautical mile radius on all quadrants. The general public especially fisherman, commercial pilots and marine tour operators are advised to stay clear from this area during the times and date indicated.

Farallon de Medinilla plays a special and unique role in national defense because its location provides access frequency that supports established training requirements. In addition, the air and sea space in the Farallon provides sufficient room for the many different attack profiles necessary to replicate training opportunities in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
