Hangar 19 was originally an arm/de-arm scoot and hide hangar. It is located near the weapons bunker.

In early 2005 two additions were added in the north and south, tripling the size of the hangar. In 2006 view screens were added to cover the openings in the lower part of the extensions. Around 2007/2008 four radio towers were added just east of the hangar. The type of tower is associated with UAV projects. There are no roads to the hangar or vehicles parked nearby. It is believed that the hangar and its additions were was used as a scoot and hide hangar for a large UAV project, possibly the RQ-180.

With that project likely moved on the hangar may very well be re-purposed for a new project.
