Complex 20 (now SLC-20)
Complexes 15, 16, 19, & 20 were started in 1959 to support the TITAN I Ballistic Missile Program. Complex 20 (now SLC-20) was modified to support the TITAN IIIA launch program. It supported 4 TITAN IIIA launches before its deactivation in 1967. Reactivated in 1987, it supported the STARBIRD program, followed by the ARIES and RED TIGRESS missions. All were sponsored by the Strategic Defense Initiative Organization. SLC-20 is maintained as a Small Expendable Launch Vehicle (SELV) support site and is being considered for use by the Spaceport Florida Authority for commercial space activities.
