Established in the British era and among the Indian Air Force's oldest bases, Ambala Air Force Station in Haryana made headlines in 2020 as the home of India's first Rafale squadron. It is a purely military installation: no civilian flights, no IATA code, no freight handling. Cargo from the Ambala area – a major railway junction on the Grand Trunk Road (NH-44) – reaches air capacity fastest via Chandigarh (IXC), some 45 km away, or Delhi-IGI (DEL). The base itself plays no role in commercial logistics.
