Along with Governor Dannel P. Malloy, Senator Richard Blumenthal, Congressman Joe Courtney, and Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman, members of the Connecticut National Guard officially broke ground on a $14.3 million fuel cell and corrosion control facility on August 20, at the Bradley Air National Guard Base in East Granby, home of the @103AW. The 29,600-square foot facility will provide specialized hangar space for fuel cell maintenance and corrosion treatment for the C-130 Hercules aircraft. is one of many ongoing projects to transform Bradley Air National Guard Base after transitioning to a fleet of C-130s in 2013.
