Maladzyechna Air Base

Maladzyechna (air base)

Maladzyechna was an air base in Belarus located 8 km south of Maladzyechna. It was a 1960s-era fighter base, headquarters of the 330th Fighter Aviation Division, 26th Air Army from 1955-60. Towards the end of the Cold War it was plowed under for farmland. The geometrics remained visible on Google Earth imagery as of 2006, and a small propeller airplane was visible suggesting the airfield has remained as a minor airstrip.
