The good news, its cheap and simplifies a lot of logistics questions.
With the direction security is going these days it is probably going to get more and more complicated to do this. We had to replace the entire perimeter fencing here in MJ just to meet DND requirements, and it's a open base you can drive right ont. Cold Lake has to build an entirely new perimeter fence just to meet the requirements of the F-35, it's getting really comlicsted, that's just one small piece of the puzzle.
