## Description

Despite its airfield status, Diepholz Air Base (ICAO: ETND) in Lower Saxony is closed to commercial logistics: it is a German Air Force (Bundeswehr) installation serving as a maintenance and supply base, hosting Weapon System Support Centre 2 and elements of Helicopter Wing 64. The Defence Ministry confirmed the base would be retained permanently, with some €34.7 million invested between 2014 and 2024. There is no civil aviation or freight access. Commercial air cargo for the Diepholz region routes through Bremen Airport (IATA: BRE), about 60 km north, or Hannover (IATA: HAJ).
