An unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) was launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, on June 4, 2024.
The test launch was conducted by a joint team of the US Air Force and Space Force. The Air Force Global Strike Command said this test marks the latest in a series of over 300 similar launches and is unrelated to current global events.
“Our Strikers and our nuclear mission are the bedrock of our nation’s defense and international security,” stated General Thomas A. Bussiere, commander of the US Air Force Global Strike Command. “Our ICBM force provides 24/7 strategic deterrence, ready to respond at a moment’s notice.”
