The UK has 30 F-35Bs, ~50 RAF bases, and over 200 airports. (mostly hastily built WW2 airfields kept in operation by local flying clubs [1]) Every country within the plane's operating range except Switzerland and Ireland is a NATO ally.
We can disperse the fighter jets without needing to resort to landing on roads.
