Ugh.. ran into my first major design hurdle....
The armor plate looks awesome on the walls. Got it on the motor pool but I'm not sure I want it everywhere. I'll have to do up some tests.

Holy crap Blackhawk's are big. 64' long. Damn, didn't think they were that long. Have to redo the helicopter pad on the motor pool roof, definately not big enough.

If space for helicopters is a concern, you could have just the one helipad, and then have the other Blackhawks stowed in hangars. UH-60s assigned to special operations units are usually equipped with folding tail assemblies (these aren't found on "standard" Blackhawks), which gives them a more manageable footprint (somewhere in the 45' to 50' neighbourhood in terms of length, I think... I don't have my references handy).

The airfield won't have that many jets on base, most would be on the FLAGG for deployment where needed. Probably 2 Skystrikers, 2 Conquests and the Stealth. The base airfield is mostly for C-130s and other transports planes to land and collect personal and vehicles. There will probably be 3 Blackhawk/Tomahawks on base and a couple of Dragonflys and Skyhawks.

A minor update to the Storm-Shadow picture and all-new interpretations of the Zartan siblings (click on the pictures to read the filecards):

This thing must be massive? I live right next to the Pentagon, and they have a landing pad on the northwest side of the building, where I've seen Blackhawks parked there. It's a good ways off the from the building but they must walk from there to a covered entrance within a few yards. |

I like the realism of the Zartan family. Like how you still gave them the "abilities" they had, but gave it a real foundation. Zartan looks great. Really like how you made Zandar very close to his vintage look but modernized it so it doesn't look... uhm... gay.. anymore.

The entire base will be massive, acres. The airfield is 10,000' feet long, a little over 2 1/2 miles long. One of the pics I posted earlier shows the airfield in reference to the main building.
