Would be nice to have the ships to actually make it a conspicuous presence, though......

 

we have had a permanent deployment of surface units for years over there (and UKMCC). Under Op Kipion. We have always used the US base/facilities.

Just that we will now have our own corner of the island to use.

 

 

edit - for that small price, will probably just add a few buildings to the US base and upgrade UKMCC
