F.A.N.T owns a headquarters located in Washington D.C., where all their operations are managed. The headquarters features an immensely large specially-designed underground prison to contain threats, a gigantic infirmary built to hold thousands, and several launchpads for airplanes to take off from and land.
In addition, it also has a giant garage, shelter in case of emergency, and a large hall from which Director Sinn and her assistants operate, as well as a large lab where scientists constantly work on new weapons and gear to make the job easier.
F.A.N.T also owns a large number of Airbus EXSR-012s, large Airbuses not available to the public that are built for F.A.N.T's operations, with each squad owning one.
