## Description

Where forwarders see a dot on the map, the Russian Aerospace Forces see a forward operating airfield: Bada Air Base lies about 3 km northeast of the village of Bada in Transbaikalia, southeastern Siberia. Its history is tied to the 21st and 313th Bomber Aviation Regiments and their Su-24 aircraft, and the site combines dispersed aircraft revetments with a large apron and a P-14 long-range early-warning radar. There is no civilian scheduled or cargo service and no commercial airport code. Regional air freight therefore moves through Chita-Kadala Airport (IATA: HTA) roughly 250 km east, or Ulan-Ude Baikal (UUD) about 300 km west, where customs clearance is also handled. The Trans-Siberian Railway runs past Bada and carries most surface freight in this thinly populated corridor.
