Another thing - looks like we are further expanding our basing in Syria. It appears that there are 3 primary projects:
- Resupply point in Tartus being expanded to a naval base, with basing (piers) and repair (including midlife repair) fascilities to support major surface combatants (ie cruisers).
- Further expansion of Latakia airbase.
- Improving transportation between the two (with the new railroad).
Overall it appears that we plan to keep our stuff in Syria indefinetely, the agreements appear to allow that.
