Verver Patch No data to date Back to Table of Contents Handle No data to date Back to Table of Contents Heritage PMTC, once the Naval Missile Center, was established in 1946 to provide the Navy with the extensive open-ocean T&E capabilities required to support new Fleet systems. PMTC was an integral part of the T&E programs for most of the Navy's air-launched weapons for over four-and-a-half decades; Point Mugu developed the range instrumentation, telemetry, and threat-simulation capabilities to support the Navy's most sophisticated sea-range complex.
