As the Park's anchor tenant, this will establish a nucleus for
Northrop Grumman's unmanned aircraft systems supporting research
and development, aircrew and maintenance training, operations and
mission analysis, and aircraft maintenance in the local region. The
company is also exploring additional construction in the
future.
In a morning ceremony, Governor Jack Dalrymple, Lt. Gov. Drew
Wrigley, Senator John Hoeven and Senator Heidi Heitkamp joined
together with Air Force personnel, Red River Valley advocates,
community leaders and several Northrop Grumman executives to break
ground on the site just east of Grand Forks Air Force Base. During
the event, Northrop Grumman reiterated its multimillion dollar
commitment to the region.
"Today's groundbreaking is a key step moving forward in Northrop
Grumman's partnership with North Dakota," said Janis Pamiljans,

and expand on our long-term commitment to this state and its

defense of our nation and allies."
