Re: UK selected as a global F-35 repair hub
Raf/ MOD Sealand was split up into 3 sites.. one where the hangars were and we used to fly gliders from there and various aircraft parts were stored., over the road is the avionics and repair center and there was a WW1 vintage site that was intersected by a railway which is now an industrial estate.
