Morris Air National Guard – Arizona

Morris Air National Guard Base in Tucson, Arizona, is home to the 162nd Fighter Wing, one of the larger Air National Guard units in the United States. The primary focus of this wing is training pilots to operate the F-16 Fighting Falcon, supporting missions tied to homeland defense and participation in a range of international activities. The wing employs advanced flight simulators to create realistic training environments, helping pilots prepare for real operational demands. Additionally, the base has extensive maintenance infrastructure to keep its aircraft in peak condition and ready for missions.
