GEORGIA AIR NATIONAL GUARD Robins Air Force Base
Robins Air Force Base is home of Georgia Air National Guard 116th Bomb Wing, flying the B-1B bomber, and is the main US operating base for the E-8 Joint STARS. Robins AFB is the largest industrial complex in Georgia.

In April 1996, the Air National Guards 116th Fighter Wing relocated to Robins where it was renamed the 116th Bomb Wing and flies the B-1B bomber. Part of the reason to move the Guard was simply the air space required. It wasn't possible to fly the B-1B at Dobbins Air Reserve Base (ARB), so when the unit converted from F-15s to the B-1B they had to find a new home. The Georgia Air National Guard (GAANG) B-1 base is a base-within-a-base, 134 acres of Robins AFB surrounded by a class B security fence.
