 Naval Air Station Oceana - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Naval Air Station Oceana is a United States Navy master jet base, located in the city of Virginia Beach, Virginia.
During the 2005 round of BRAC base closures, it was decided that NAS Oceana could remain open only if certain conditions are met.
The most contentious of these requirements is that the city of Virginia Beach buy and condemn approximately 3,400 residences and an unknown number of businesses in crash zones surrounding the base.
