History



Vietnam War


The air base was built in 1968 and was used as a forward staging bases with MiGs temporarily deployed from other VPAF bases.[4]

On the morning of 13 April 1972 the airfield was attacked by B-52s, destroying one MiG-17 and cratering the runway.[5] The base was attacked again by US Navy A-6s in May 1972.[6] On 15 June U.S. fighter-bombers again attacked the base cratering the runway.[7] The base was attacked again on 18 June with further damage to the runway.[8] The base was attacked again on 11 and 12 November 1972 with six craters reported in the runway.[9]


Current use


The base is home to the VPAF 923rd Fighter-bomber Squadron operating the Sukhoi Su-30MKK.

The government of Vietnam implemented an upgrading project to add more civil facilities in order to turn the airport into a mixed civilian/military airport in early 2013. It is planned to become a relief airport for Hanoi's Noi Bai International Airport.
