Would the presence of the PFS facility require the Air Force to restrict operations on the UTTR?
No. The presence of the PFS facility would not require the Air Force to impose any restrictions or changes on UTTR operations. The military target closest to the PFS site is over 18 miles away so there is no chance of hitting the PFS site with an errant weapon. In addition, the simulated aerial combat training that is conducted on the UTTR takes place near the center of the restricted areas on the range, even farther from the PFS site, so those activities would not pose a hazard either.
