The vastness of the Steppes of South Western Idaho. Back when I was ‘in’ we called it Orchard Training Area (OTA), now it’s called Orchard Combat Training Center (OCTC). It is located on federal land (60% of land in Idaho is actually owned by the federales).

On 04MAR2021, the Idaho National Guard revealed its new Digital Air Ground Integrated Range (DAGIR), the first to be operated by the National Guard. It’s the second DAGIR in operation in the United States, the other DAGIR is operated by the U.S. Army (USA) on Fort Bliss, Texas/New Mexico (a second USA DAGIR is currently under construction on Fort Knox, Kentucky).

USA video report by David Poe, from November 2020, explaining the Fort Bliss DAGIR (which straddles the Texas-New Mexico border):
DAGIR allows armor, infantry and helicopter units to conduct combined arms live-fire wargames, while receiving performance feedback in real-time: “This fully instrumented range will make it possible for military personnel within Idaho and the United States to coordinate and practice accomplishing missions from the ground and air simultaneously.”-Colonel Matthew Godfrey, Idaho Army National Guard
As many as 2-hundred types of targets can be used in more than 4-hundred scenarios, all recorded for posterity: “Video doesn’t lie. Soldiers and leaders will have the ability to go back and re-watch what they just executed like never before. This will help fine-tune points you can’t see on most ranges and allow units to use the recording to prepare for future gunnery cycles and use it as a training tool.”-Major Joe Doyle, OCTC range officer
The Steppes of South West Idaho are so vast that the new DAGIR is only one of 23 other military ranges on the OTA, oops, I mean OCTC.
