Zane,

It's been a long time since I went through all of Scott's information, but I think his specialty is USAF and AAF sites. He's got lots of info and on-site visit photos on his website, well worth the time it takes to research.

The Raytheon Plant in Bristol, TN, was a NWIRP, but it closed a few years ago. It made several of the surface-to-air missiles.
I used to visit it regularly when I was with NAVFAC at NAS Atlanta.
