The U.S. military made history on Feb 15 by airlifting a nuclear reactor for the first time. Here's why they did that and what it means for the military.

The U.S. military transported a micro nuclear reactor for the first time in history on the 15th from the March Air Reserve Base in California to the Hill Air Force Base in Utah. This is part of U.S. President Donald Trump’s policy to expand the deployment of nuclear power across the United States and to the frontlines of U.

Micro nuclear reactors are being seen as a way to get critical bases off the grid, but they could also have a major impact on civilian energy production.

In a first-of-its-kind mission, the United States Air Force airlifted unfuelled modules of a micro nuclear reactor aboard three Boeing C-17 Globemaster III aircraft under Operation Windlord.

Using the five megawatt reactor would mean US forces could operate without fear that an enemy might cut fuel supplies.

The US Departments of Energy and Defense transported a fuel-free microreactor by military aircraft to Utah, marking the first demonstration of rapid nuclear power deployment for military and civilian

The Department of War has teamed up with the Department of Energy to advance one of President Donald Trump‘s core missions, which is to unleash American energy dominance. In a historic effort to produce stability in a demanding energy environment,

The US Departments of Energy and Defense on Sunday for the first time transported a small nuclear reactor on a cargo plane from California to Utah to demonstrate the potential to quickly deploy nuclear power for military and civilian use.

The Pentagon, along with the Department of Energy, on Sunday airlifted a small nuclear reactor, the first such transportation as the Trump administration looks to quickly deploy nuclear power across the U.

Small, possibly portable, nuclear reactors that can’t melt down are moving toward reality in the United States, with what may be the first two coming online or beginning construction this year. The US Army just transported its first small reactor for testing,

A micro nuclear reactor was airlifted by an American Air Force C-17 the first time. It was not a cargo of fuel, ammunition, or a satellite part, but the un-fueled hardware of Ward 250 of Valar Atomics crated into modules,
