Hurlburt Field is home to Air Force Special Operations Command. Tyndall Air Force Base is being rebuilt after hurricane damage, which drives construction and facilities work. Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division develops mine warfare, diving and expeditionary systems. Naval Air Station Pensacola and Whiting Field train naval aviators and buy aircraft support and facilities work.
