ATC Naval Station Sangley Pt RP
U.S. Navy
ATC Naval Station Sangley Point, located in Cavite City, Philippines, began as a Spanish naval facility before becoming a key U.S. Naval Station following the Spanish-American War in 1898. During World War II, the base played a crucial role in naval aviation operations, serving as a hub for patrol squadrons and seaplanes defending Manila Bay. After the war, Sangley Point continued to support U.S. and Philippine naval and air operations, notably as an Air Transport Command (ATC) facility, facilitating logistics and personnel movement throughout the Asia-Pacific region. The base was eventually turned over to the Philippine government in 1971, continuing to serve as a vital maritime and air facility for the Philippine Navy.

Atlantic Fleet Weapons Range
U.S. Navy
The **Atlantic Fleet Weapons Range** (AFWR) was established in the mid-20th century to provide the U.S. Navy with a dedicated site along the Atlantic coast for live-fire training and weapons testing. Located primarily off the coast of Florida, the range supported Atlantic Fleet air, surface, and subsurface units by offering a controlled environment for missile launches, gunnery exercises, and complex training scenarios. Over the decades, the AFWR played a crucial role in maintaining the combat readiness of naval forces during both the Cold War and subsequent conflicts. The range has evolved with advances in technology, supporting testing of modern precision-guided munitions and integrated warfare systems, and remains an essential asset for U.S. naval operations.
