SwRI celebrates a first in its 78-year history — the purchase of land and construction of a new facility outside of its San Antonio headquarters. The 33,000-square-foot, $18.5 million building, equipped to advance national defense technology, is strategically located 3 miles from Robins Air Force Base in Warner Robins, Georgia. The building, featuring conference rooms, labs and new equipment, is expanding SwRI capabilities in electronic warfare (EW) research and development. The state-of-the-art Warner Robins space, which officially opened August 20, is a launch pad for innovative ideas and inspiration.

Listen now as SwRI EW experts and Warner Robins engineers Winfield Greene, David Brown and Jarrett Holcomb talk about the new opportunities in the space, the forward-looking EW development underway and why Warner Robins is the ideal community for growth and progress.
