[[Easter Basin Naval Station]] is a navy dock. On its LPH, (Landing Platform Helicopter)often mistaken for an aircraft carrier, is a [[Hydra]] jet. A random civilian vehicle spawns in one of the parking spaces, and an army [[Barracks OL]] truck on the opposite side. Near these is a [[Reefer]] boat. Inside one of the three submarine pens in the base is a [[Launch]] military boat.

==Trivia==
Area 69 is a very strict No-Fly Zone — any aircraft flying over it will be shot down by the base's SAM launchers, which fire heat seeking SAM missiles. The player should fly around Area 69 to avoid this, or fly at a very high altitude. Another way to avoid SAMs is to use countermeasures, however these are fitted only on the [[Hydra]].
