Pizzicato Posted April 24 Posted April 24 Hey all, Does anyone know which airbases/airports were used by the RCAF CF-18s in the first Gulf War? My understanding was that they were based "near Doha" in Qatar, and I think Canada Dry One might have been Doha International airport. I have no idea where Canada Dry Two was, though. I'm assuming it was one of the other three airbases that are planned for Qatar in the southern expansion to the map, but I have no actual idea. Does anyone with better Google skills than me (or some actual practical knowledge) know the answer(s)? i7-7700K @ 4.9Ghz | 16Gb DDR4 @ 3200Mhz | MSI Z270 Gaming M7 | MSI GeForce GTX 1080ti Gaming X | Win 10 Home | Thrustmaster Warthog | MFG Crosswind pedals | Oculus Rift S

Saguanay Posted 21 hours ago Posted 21 hours ago Canada Dry. The two bases, named Canada Dry One (10 km outside Doha) and Canada Dry Two, housed land and air elements (CF18 - Desert Cats). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_Dry_One https://www.richthistle.com/about-rich/aviation-articles/cf-18-hornets-in-the-gulf-war
