Location
Grozny, Russia
Khankala Air Base is a military airfield located on the eastern outskirts of Grozny, the capital of the Chechen Republic in southern Russia. It has served as a key Russian military installation, particularly during the First and Second Chechen Wars in the 1990s and early 2000s, functioning as a principal logistical and operational hub for Russian federal forces. The base is not open to commercial aviation and has no scheduled passenger services. It remains an active military facility under Russian federal control and is distinct from Grozny's civilian airport, Grozny Severny Airport (IATA: GRV), which handles commercial traffic.
