Amid the coal and chemical works of South Pyongan Province around Sunchon, Pukchang Air Base remains a military installation with no IATA code and no commercial freight role. It plays no part in civilian logistics. Goods from this industrial belt move by rail and road toward Pyongyang and the west-coast port of Nampo, while air freight is handled at Pyongyang Sunan International Airport (FNJ). For forwarders, rail is the backbone here, not the military runway at Pukchang.
