The issue of hangars is being addressed as part of the Future Fighter Capability Project (FFCP).In fact, implementation phase has already begun at the locations (Cold Lake and Bagotville). The project includes operational headquarters for the squadrons that will fly the jets, as well as security, IT and maintenance and training facilities for the new fleet.
