Forum: F-16 Armament & Stores

I am a Senior Director at General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems and represent our Marion, IL facility where we produce the 20mm PGU27 A/B TP and the PGU 28 A/B SAPHEI rounds. One of the programs we run is having US Warfighters that use our ammunition visit the factory for a plant tour. We strongly belive that it has benefits for both sides. The warfighter has a chance to see how his ammo is produce and understand that it is a complcated process, while our workers get the opportunity to see who we really work for and to thank the Soldier, Sairlor, Airman and Marine for their service and sacrifices.

Unfortunately, we have yet to have Airmen/Airwomen visit us and I am hoping we can get some pilots and ammo handlers to visit the plant. I can be contacted at 727-656-2074 & at [Link pending approval]@[Link pending approval]

Thank you and looking forward to your visit,

The Marion airport can handle an F-16. That would be HUGE for our employees.

I've forwarded this to what might be some interested parties. Maybe you could get a pilot in ther doing a X-country. I agree seeing the product is a big uplift for those of us who support it.
Hope you get a "flock of Falcons"

[Link pending approval] would not believe how enthustiastically our employees welcome the end users and handlers of our ammunition. We has some Bradley gunners in last year. What a treat for all involved.

Still hoping to have pilots &/or ammo handlers visit the General Dynamics plant that produces the 20mm PGU 27 A/B TP and PGU 28 A/B SAPHEI rounds.
