weapons lab
Military research center
A weapons lab is a research facility dedicated to developing military armaments—typically nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons.
The term often refers to major government installations: Los Alamos and Livermore are the nation's premier weapons labs.
Such facilities combine scientific research with engineering and testing, usually under high security and classification.
