Several [[United States Navy]] ships have been named [[USS Nevada|USS ''Nevada'']] in honor of the state. They include:

* [[USS Nevada (BM-8)|USS ''Nevada'' (BM-8)]]

[[Area 51]] is near [[Groom Lake]], a dry salt lake bed. The much smaller [[Creech Air Force Base]] is in [[Indian Springs, Nevada]]; [[Hawthorne Army Depot]] in [[Hawthorne, Nevada|Hawthorne]]; the [[Tonopah Test Range]] near [[Tonopah, Nevada|Tonopah]]; and [[Nellis AFB]] in the northeast part of the [[Las Vegas Valley]]. [[Naval Air Station Fallon]] in [[Fallon, Nevada|Fallon]]; NSAWC, (pronounced "EN-SOCK") in western Nevada. NSAWC consolidated three Command Centers into a single Command Structure under a flag officer on July 11, 1996. The Naval Strike Warfare Center based at NAS Fallon since 1984, was joined with the Navy Fighter Weapons School ([[TOPGUN]]) and the [[Carrier Airborne Early Warning Weapons School]], which both moved from NAS Miramar as a result of a Base Realignment and Closure decision in 1993 which transferred that installation back to the Marine Corps as MCAS Miramar. The Seahawk Weapon School was added in 1998 to provide tactical training for Navy helicopters.

These bases host a number of activities including the [[Joint Unmanned Aerial Systems Center of Excellence]], the [[Naval Strike and Air Warfare Center]], [[Nevada Test and Training Range]], [[Red Flag (USAF)|Red Flag]], the [[U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds]], the [[United States Air Force Warfare Center]], the [[United States Air Force Weapons School]], and the [[United States Navy Fighter Weapons School]].
