The CVF deck landing aids equipment would be portable enough to take it to where the F-35Bs will be. Probaby PaxRiver (USN test facilities) or where the UK 3 F-35Bs will end up eventually at Edwards AFB for operational testing? My guess would be NAS Patuxent River - Ttere are dummy decks available along with a replica ski jump and all the F-35B test pilots in the world.

The USN (LSOs at least) are interested in the Bedford Array. Probably a good idea for the company to test it where the most potential users can see it in action?
