Aerospace and Military Asbestos Exposure in Fort Worth
General Dynamics Fort Worth Division (now Lockheed Martin's Fort Worth plant, building F-16s and F-35s) has operated on the west side of Fort Worth since 1942, manufacturing bomber and fighter aircraft throughout the Cold War era using asbestos-containing brake assemblies, engine compartment insulation, and fireproofing materials. Workers in manufacturing, inspection, and maintenance roles had chronic low-level asbestos exposure over long careers. Bell Helicopter Textron's Fort Worth facilities produced military and commercial helicopters using asbestos-containing materials in rotor brake systems and firewall insulation. Carswell AFB (now NAS Fort Worth JRB) hosted Strategic Air Command B-52 and B-36 bomber operations with asbestos-intensive maintenance operations.
