RAF Holbeach
RAF Holbeach is a Royal Air Force bombing range situated in Lincolnshire, near to The Wash, on the east of England.
The range provides facilities for RAF and other NATO aircraft to practice dropping bombs and firing their cannon. Targets include several old trawlers which have been beached on the sands of The Wash for this purpose. Towers parallel to the target line are manned and allow the fall of the weapons to be triangulated.
