This is a Request for Proposal issued to contractors to bid for the contract to build the PERMANENT FACILITIES AT THE PERMANENT "INSIDE-THE-US" MARINE AIR BASE AT BEAUFORT SOUTH CAROLINA!
It has nothing whatsoever to do with "austere bases", "forward bases", or anything other than a permanent airfield!
GreenKnight I can and have read the document quickly, my point was that if the work schedule described in the document was necessary to ensure that a permanent inside the USA base can operate F35Bs safely, this base being one that I assume had previously had Harriers operating from, then the work necessary to ensure that F35Bs can operate safely from anywhere other than an Amphib, would be somewhere in the same order.
