The Gun Harmonization Facility is a concrete pad with a retaining wall constructed on three sides. The facility measures 50-foot W X 70-foot D. It contains approximately 100 tons of washed plaster sand and has railroad ties and sand bags configured around the exterior to eliminate possible ricochets. There are aircraft (A/C) tie down points available for securing A/C. The facility is primarily used for aligning A/C Head-Up Display (HUD) symbology for gun sighting as well as boresighting and live weapon checkout.
