The Department of War has teamed up with the Department of Energy to advance one of President Donald Trump‘s core missions, which is to unleash American energy dominance. In a historic effort to produce stability in a demanding energy environment, Trump is removing all roadblocks that have strangled ingenuity within the nuclear power community. Sunday, Feb. 17, 2026, the War Department transported a next-generation nuclear micro-reactor aboard a Boeing C-17 Globemaster III from March Air Force base in California to Hill Air Force base located in Utah.

The transport comes after major executive orders were signed by Trump to further advance the nuclear initiative and to release the choked potential of nuclear energy. In the past, nuclear energy has been severely criticized by politicians of the Democratic Party and stagnated by overregulation coupled with policies directed at hindering the progress of nuclear energy. Nuclear energy is by far the most reliable form of electricity available, and the Left has been attacking and shutting down major nuclear plants.
