As part of the Michigan Air National Guard’s 110th Wing, the 272d Cyber Operations Squadron, Battle Creek, Mich., proactively defends state and federal computer networks at home and around the globe. The essential function is hunting for advanced cyber threats. If detected, the cyber operators can quickly contain bad actors and remove their presence from the network. They also perform detailed vulnerability and risk assessments of information systems to harden them against potential intrusions.
Battle Creek Air National Guard Base is home station for nearly 1,000 diverse members, who have together established a proud heritage of service in Southwest Michigan dating back to 1947. In addition to an MQ-9 operations mission, the 110th Wing at Battle Creek is now home to an elite Cyber defense squadron (one of only 12 of its kind), medical and mission support groups that provide outstanding capabilities to ensure our Airmen’s readiness, and a state-of-the-art Air Operations Group that offers command and control capabilities to support our National Defense Strategy around the globe. Additionally, the 110th Wing’s robust communication and command and control network links Battle Creek to the other premier Department of Defense training spaces at the National All-Domain Warfighting Center in Northern Michigan, which includes nearly 148,000 acres of ground maneuver space and the largest overland military airspace complex east of the Mississippi River.
