When it comes to military readiness, precision in training is crucial. SupplyCore and MILO Live have set a benchmark with their collaboration, delivering a sophisticated modular shooting range for the Air National Guard at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport via the Defense Logistics Agency’s Special Operational Equipment Tailored Logistics Support Program.
Overcoming Logistical Challenges
The Air National Guard faced logistical and financial hurdles in conducting essential marksmanship training, which previously required off-site travel, incurring significant time and costs. An on-site advanced training facility was essential to boost readiness and efficiency.
Innovative Solutions: SupplyCore and MILO Live’s Modular Shooting Range
SupplyCore and MILO Live collaborated to design and implement a cutting-edge, 9,900-square-foot modular shooting range. This 14-lane facility, offering a 25-yard shooting distance, addressed logistical challenges and exemplified innovation in military training solutions.
Strategic Partnership
This project was a testament to strategic teamwork. SupplyCore was proud to be the DLA Prime Vendor on the project, playing a crucial role in ensuring efficient and timely delivery of essential supplies. MILO Live, part of Arotech Corporation’s Training and Simulation Division, provided state-of-the-art modular shooting range technology.
Implementation and Execution
Success relied on meticulous planning and execution. SupplyCore and MILO Live worked closely with the National Guard Bureau and the Defense Logistics Agency to meet every specification. The facility’s construction, from start to finish, was completed in just 11 months, showcasing the teams’ efficiency and dedication.
