Additional capacity and facilities include 7 million cubic feet of covered warehouse space, 799 earth-covered igloos, 34 million cubic feet of improved open storage, and 500,000 square feet of industrial space. The foundation for SIAD’s unique capabilities to maintain, ready, and expedite equipment, supplies, and systems to nearly anywhere in the world is built on its high desert climate and a foundational infrastructure that includes an on-post C-5- and C-17-capable airfield – lengthened to 10,000 feet in 2007 – and over 60 miles of rail, three rail classification yards, and two locomotives with fully certified crews to facilitate large shipments to and from the main Union Pacific line adjacent to the depot. As the Army’s main retrograde site for equipment returning from Southwest Asia, Tank-automotive and Armament Command (TACOM) Life Cycle Management Command’s (LCMC) Sierra Army Depot (SIAD) plays a critical role in partnerships with organizations like AMC’s Responsible Reset Task Force (R2TF) and the Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC).
