Each day, fighter aircraft will release munitions between 8 a.m. and 1 p.m., approximately 11.5 nautical miles south of Destin over the Gulf of Mexico.

The test will be conducted within a cleared-range safety area, which includes boat surveillance in the Gulf. Notices will be issued to mariners before missions.

In addition, flyers will be handed out at the local marina. Boaters are encouraged to contact local marinas for information on notices to mariners.

The operations are part of the 53rd Wing’s Weapon System Evaluation Program. For more information, please contact the 96th Test Wing or the 53rd WG public affairs office at 882-0423.
