Title: RAF Marham base for Joint Strike Fighter
Post by: mhm on March 25, 2013, 03:07:06 PM
The RAF's newest aircraft, the Joint Strike Fighter, will be based in Norfolk, the defence secretary has revealed during a visit to the county.

Philip Hammond announced the decision that RAF Marham would home the aircraft on a trip to the base.

The facility, where Tornado aircraft are stationed, had been threatened with closure under the government's defence review but won a reprieve in July 2011.
