Lakenheath (ICAO: EGUL) is a Royal Air Force station near the village of Lakenheath in Suffolk, England, UK, 4.7 miles (7.6 km) north-east of Mildenhall and 8.3 miles (13.4 km) west of Thetford. The base also sits close to Brandon.

Despite being an RAF station, Lakenheath currently only hosts United States Air Force (USAF) units and personnel. The host wing is the 48th Fighter Wing (48 FW), also known as the Liberty Wing, assigned to United States Air Forces in Europe - Air Forces Africa (USAFE-AFAFRICA). The wing operates the F-15E Strike Eagle and the F-35A Lightning II.

The scenery contains:

• Full custom objects with photoreal textures
• All objects include PBR textures
• Full night lighting including custom taxi lights using the latest airport lighting system features in the SDK
• Full custom ground poly/projected mesh
• Terrain is using the latest mesh from the UK update
• Static F-15E and F-35 aircraft

The scenery requires you have the UK World update installed for the terrain.

If data is turned off and offline mode is used, then some trees may dissapear while others appear where they are not supposed to and you may also experience terrain issues.

Version 0.5 update includes:

• New Ground textures and updated ground poly
• The new F-35 Complex
• 493rd F-35 Static models.
• Custom ILS
• Runway changed to 23/05
• Animated windsocks
• Various other small improvements

The ground now utilises the Bing tile system which is more update to date and higher resolution. All constuction work has been edited out in the FS2020 verison. The default tiles will show in FS2024 without the editing due to issues with the tile system on ported airports. It will be addressed when a native FS2024 is available.

Thanks to John Young and Ricardo Morilla for the use of some of their models and textures.
