A Premier Military Installation

A Premier Military Installation
Fort Knox is a premier Department of Defense asset that is well-suited for additional missions. Here are just a few reasons why:
Modern Facilities/Buildable Acres

Fort Knox’s 6,800-acre cantonment area is home to modern facilities, many of which are newly built or renovated in the past 10 years and have excess capacity. The cantonment area also has more than 5,500 buildable acres should an organization need specially designed/built facilities.

Ranges & Training Areas

Fort Knox’s world-class ranges and training areas are ideally suited for combat units – from state-of-the-art MOUT site to 360 live fire river range and more than 100,000 acres of training area.

Low Cost of Operations

With what is widely regarded as the best energy program in the Department of Defense, the cost of operations at Fort Knox is more affordable than other military installations. That includes 50 Energy Star-rated buildings and more than 6.7 million square feet of administrative space heated and cooled using geothermal ground couple heat pumps.

Godman Army Airfield

This fully instrumented airfield complete with four runways supports rotary and fixed wing aircraft and would allow for rapid deployment operations.

Central Location

Did you know that Fort Knox is within a day’s drive of two-thirds of the U.S. population? And with Louisville International Airport just a mere 25 miles north, air travel to the installation is easy, too. That is why U.S. Army Cadet Command consolidated its summer training at Fort Knox. Other units and organizations seeking a centralized training location can realize the same cost benefits.

Central Location

Physical Security

Fort Knox has strong physical security measures in place designed to deny unauthorized access to facilities, equipment and resources, and to protect personnel and property from damage or harm.
