President Donald Trump announced plans for a new weapons-testing facility in Montana, according to Newsweek. Speaking at the Majestic Valley Arena in Kalispell, Trump announced that the Department of War would establish a new “Super Range” in the state to test advanced military technologies. He said the facility would cover several emerging areas of warfare, including autonomous weapons, space and electronic warfare, and supersonic and hypersonic technology.
“Montana will help ensure the American military always reigns supreme,” he told the crowd. The president was in the state to campaign for Republican Aaron Flint, who is running against Democrat Sam Forstag for Montana’s 1st Congressional District.
