The re-militarisation of Artsyz airfield (Odessa)
1998 saw the military finally leave the former Soviet airbase of Artsyz, western Odessa.
The 840 hectare site, once known as the 206th Airbase was home to the 737 Fighter Wing, and in Soviet times was also the airbase for a military transport squadron. It was also a reserve space shuttle site. Popular folklore would also have it that it was a Soviet chemical weapons storage site.
