Davis-Monthan Air Force Base

The A-10 Thunderbolt is Davis-Monthan Air Force Base’s largest mission.

Personnel at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base will conduct an unspecified military exercise over the next two weeks, so nearby residents may hear some unusual noises on the base, D-M said Friday.

Local residents may notice "blast simulations and noise from simulated gunfire"  and there will be an increased number of flights in the area, base officials said.

The noises will be heard mainly in the vicinity of south Golf Links Road between Alvernon Road and Craycroft Road.
