Description: Image shows the new Integrated Training Centre being constructed at RAF Marham. The construction is part of Project ANVIL, the infrastructure construction work for the RAF's new F-35B Lightning II aircraft due to arrive at RAF Marham in 2018. Infrastructure works to prepare RAF Marham for the arrival of the F-35B Lightning multi-role combat aircraft are well underway at the Norfolk base. Over £500m is being invested in new facilities under the banner of Project Anvil, named after a type of lightning. When 617 Squadron, the Dambusters, arrive at RAF Marham they will benefit from new infrastructure including buildings for the management, maintenance, training and operational facilities required for the new aircraft, in addition there will be vertical landing pads, hardened aircraft shelters, service platforms and the refurbishment of 90% the airfield operating surfaces including the main runway and all taxiways. Project Anvil spans across the Station with eight main development sites during which time RAF Marham has continued to deliver high tempo Tornado GR4 operations.
