McKinley Bunker

McKinley Bunker is a small one, but again open to the public. It is located at South Bay at UA City. It has two main parts, the Upper Battery and the lower underground section. The upper battery is unusual in that it was designed to fire into the city at ships in South Bay. The lower battery had a full 360 degree rotational ability, but would have fired stright into the upper battery if reversed.

Above ground sections of the bunker are on this page, below ground sections are here.
