This is the strip of the highway in Lusi that the air force uses as a spare landing strip. There are dozens like it everywhere in the country. The air force has enough reserve personnel to operate temporary bases built around highway strips like that in dozens of locations. The main bases have a high likelihood of being destroyed by the enemy, which is why the Finnish Air Force has a reserve of approximately 15,000 for operating enough of such temporary bases.

It is no co-incidence that the FAF chose the F/A-18 Hornet as its fighter/assault aircraft. It's used by the US Navy Airforce on aircraft carriers. The F-35 with vertical takeoff/landing capability is a strong candidate for the next fighter type.
