Nice opportunity to reactivate the 32FS ”Wolfhounds“ :wink:

CR Lightnings. Great idea! ;-)
Not exactly as I meant it, but if there are going to be additional squadrons at the Heath, then why not a revival of the 32FS (with LN tailcode) 8)
One thing is for sure, two additional squadrons at Lakenheath will make six and that will surely not fit. Therefore I guess 492 and 494 will be the “new” F-35 squadrons.

IMHO if ‘additional’ F-35 Sqns arrive at Lakenheath then I think they will be deployed Sqns of 8, 10 or perhaps 12 jets each. I can’t see them sending two full Sqns over…
