In 2013, and as part of the ongoing redevelopment and remediation of Woomera into its 'next-generation' configuration in readiness to support the ADF's 'Force2030' plan, the range facility was reorganised and renamed to the 'Woomera Range Complex' (WRC).The WRC is a highly specialised ADF test and evaluation 'capability' operated by the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) for the purposes of 'testing war material' (refer Defence Force Regulation 34).
