I was thinking something along these lines myself.

Four parallel strips. This must have been a BIG base!!

Adjacent and perpendicular to the coast, it would have on a small island/atoll. It couldn't be on a large island with a mountain range or the strips would be further inland or run parallel to the beach.

Doesn't leave many options.......
