scotthldr Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 “That’s because the Navy has yet to start the process of naming a home base for its East Coast F-35Cs. It requires extensive environmental impact studies before senior leaders make the final decision on where the squadrons will go. And that, Navy officials say, isn’t expected to start until the mid-2020′s at the earliest.” Do they have a choice, I thought Oceana was the only base on the Eastern seaboard that could handle the permanent basing of fast jets Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted December 8, 2018 Author Share Posted December 8, 2018 Seems like the logical choice. Beaufort and Cherry Point are other possibilities. -Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darren Roberts Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 So what happens to Oceana? Eventually the Super Hornets will be phased out. Does this mean the vocal contingent around the Oceana area will get their way and Oceana will close? What a shame that will be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
