Focus Areas & Services
Joint Base Langley-Eustis became the only training hub for the Air Force’s most advanced fighter, the F-22 Raptor, after a 2018 hurricane in Florida devastated Tyndall Air Force Base. To prepare for the beddown, the USAF required three new facilities: a Low Observable Component Repair Facility (LO-CRF), a Consolidated Operations and Maintenance Hangar (COMH); and a Training Support Squadron Facility. RS&H, as the lead JV partner, completed full design-bid-build multidisciplinary plans for the facilities, which included utilities, airfield and site improvements. These structures are the first F-22 facilities designed and constructed in more than 10 years.
Construction of the COMH was completed in April 2026. The modern facility consolidates the operations and maintenance functions into two main areas: a 36,000-square-foot maintenance hangar with six bays for F-22s and a two-story, 40,445-square-foot administrative and support wing for 92 full-time staff.
The LO-CRF is under construction. The 72,000 square foot, four-bay high-bay (three low observable critical repair and one wash rack) facility will provide all necessary spaces to house three corrosion control hangar bays, one wash rack hangar, shops, tools/support, staff administration, ready room, break room, restrooms/showers/lockers, and building systems support.
The 70,500 square-foot, eight-bay Training Support Squadron Facility is also under construction. The facility will provide all necessary spaces to house academic (classroom) and equipment (simulator) instruction, equipment/computer support, staff space, restrooms, briefing rooms, and building systems support. Construction also incorporates a secure spaces compliant with ICD/ICS 705 that must be constructed in accordance with National Counterintelligence and Security Center IC Tech Spec – for ICD/ICS 705.
