Overview:

Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) Mid-Atlantic invites contractors to learn about and ask

questions regarding a proposed project located at the Marine Corps Air Station, Cherry Point, North Carolina

NAVFAC is preparing to advertise in September/October 2026.

Estimated Construction Cost: Over $500,000,000

Project Description:

This is a Design-Bid-Build (DBB) project and will utilize the Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) acquisition method.

P-271 E-130J Main Operating & Training Base is a project that will construct all operational and support facilities for E-

130J Main Operating Base (MOB) and Fleet Replacement Squadron (FRS) training campus at the Marine Corps Air

Station (MCAS) in Cherry Point, NC. New construction facilities include an aircraft parking apron, aircraft access apron,

taxiway, three-bay aircraft maintenance hangar, training building, Mobile Support Unit operational compound, and an

aircraft maintenance and ground support equipment warehouse. Renovation of existing facilities includes Building 244

for Center for Naval Aviation Technical Training (CNATT) academic and applied training functions associated with the

E-130J.

The Aircraft Maintenance Hangar will be a two-story building with high-bay, overhead maintenance space to support

three E-130J aircraft. The hangar will be constructed as four separate buildings with expansion joints, built on deep

foundations using driven precast, prestressed concrete piles. The Hangar Security Building is a single-story security

guard house, outside of the PL2 security fenceline, that provides controlled access to the hangar enclave for vehicles

and pedestrians. The Training Building is a predominantly single-story building, divided into four massing areas with

varying roof heights. Much of the facility is low-rise, with roof heights of 16-20 feet. The Mobile Support Unit Operational

Compound is a low-rise, pre-engineered long-span metal building. The Aircraft Maintenance and Ground Support

Equipment (GSE) Warehouse is a low-rise, pre-engineered metal building with structural columns located along the

middle of each space. The project will renovate and alter portions of Building 244 which has a total floor area of 4,356

m2 and currently supports existing CNATT functions. The project also includes significant road widening along

Roosevelt Avenue and Access Roads, utility upgrades including the replacement of an electric substation, water, sewer

and communications lines and a pump station.
