Egyptian military airbase with historic wartime significance.

Location

Mansoura, Egypt

Al Mansurah Airbase is an Egyptian Air Force installation located near the city of Mansoura in the Nile Delta region of Egypt. It operates primarily as a military facility and is not open to commercial passenger traffic. The airbase gained historical prominence during the October 1973 Arab-Israeli War (Yom Kippur War), when Egyptian and Israeli air forces engaged in one of the largest air battles of the conflict in the skies over the region. The base played a significant role in Egyptian air defense operations during that conflict. The facility continues to serve the Egyptian Air Force and has no scheduled civilian airline services. It is designated with the ICAO code HE32 but has no IATA code assigned, reflecting its non-commercial status.
