The Guardian Centers' Range Complex encompasses five separate ranges, to include:

  • 360-degree drive-and-shoot range
  • 50-meter range with computer-controlled linear target systems
  • 100-yard small arms range
  • 350-yard rifle range

With 75 acres of realistic urban terrain, including 80 structures, including one-to-three-story buildings with stairwells and rooftop access, and 16 city blocks, the cityscape allows for true immersion during UTAC. Structures replicate common urban-area businesses and government buildings, and the cityscape includes two city blocks of dynamic collapsed structures housing realistic, multi-story steel and concrete collapses with dynamic flooring systems that can be lowered, raised, or flattened to represent different stages of collapse.
