The Strategic Weapons Engineering Facility is a 51,000-sf addition to the main building for the US Naval Support Activity in Crane, Indiana. As a design-build effort, the facility provides a modern engineering laboratory where in-service engineering, technical support for electronics, and electronic warfare systems is conducted. The facility is recognized for its full life-cycle engineering leadership in the design, testing, and analysis of high reliability electronic component devices, modules, subsystems, boards, and assemblies for use in strategic missile flight hardware. The 2-story building includes spaces for engineering labs, environmental labs, analysis labs, test and evaluation labs, engineering and logistics support areas, secured engineering development spaces, a library, shipping/receiving, and administrative areas. One of the special features is a full-scale 15,000 pound, 38-foot C4 missile display. The project also includes a GFGI Intrusion Detection System (IDS) and access controls to ensure adequate security. Built-in equipment includes vibration isolation pads, raised flooring and an elevator.

The design conforms to anti-terrorism/force protection standards, is USGBC LEED Silver Certified, and follows LEED and Federal Energy Acts compliance for design, development, and construction.
