Fort Hancock is a former United States Army fort at Sandy Hook in Middletown Township New Jersey. The coastal artillery base defended the Atlantic coast and the entrance to New York Harbor, with its first gun batteries operational in 1896. The fort served from then until 1950 as part of the Harbor Defenses of New York and predecessor organizations. Between 1874 and 1919, the adjacent US Army Sandy Hook Proving Ground was operated in conjunction with Fort Hancock. It is now part of Fort Hancock Memorial Park. It was preceded by the Fort at Sandy Hook, built 1857–1867 and demolished beginning in 1885.

  • Fort Hancock ist ein ehemaliges Fort in Monmouth County, New Jersey in den USA. An der Nordspitze der Halbinsel Sandy Hook gelegen, war es dazu bestimmt, Angriffen vom Atlantischen Ozean her zu begegnen. Zielte in den Anfangsjahren die Verteidigung in erster Linie gegen feindliche Schiffe, war man in der Hochzeit des Kalten Krieges mit Nike-Raketen gerüstet, Kampfflugzeuge vor New York City abzufangen.
