In October 2018, Hurricane Michael swept through the Florida Panhandle and left many areas devastated, including Tyndall Air Force Base. In a matter of hours, the storm escalated from Category 2 to Category 5. After the storm passed, the base reported that over 400 buildings were destroyed or damaged beyond repair. As a part of the effort to rebuild the base, the USACE released the Zone 1 F-35 Flightline Facilities project in the summer of 2021 with an award made in the spring of 2022. This was one of many procurements to help rebuild the base.
This design-bid-build project is for the construction of 11 facilities for the Zone 1 F-35 Flightline. The team will provide all utilities, site improvements, pavements, detection/protection features, security enhancements, and other supporting work necessary for each facility.
The facilities are as follows:
- F-35 Parking Apron
- OPS/Aircraft Maintenance Unit Hangar #1
- OPS/Aircraft Maintenance Unit Hangar #2
- OPS/Aircraft Maintenance Unit Hangar #3
- Flight Simulator Facility
- Weapons Load Training Hangar
- Aircraft MX Fuel Cell Hangar
- F-35 Maintenance Squadron Complex
- Logistics Readiness Squadron
- Auxiliary Ground Equipment
- Corrosion Control Facility
- Operation Group/Maintenance Group HQ
The project is scheduled to be complete by January 2026.
