lies beside the oil town of Ku&#231;ov&#235; in Berat County, about 80 km south of Tirana. It is where Albania&rsquo;s jet age began: on 15 May 1955 the &ldquo;23 Peza&rdquo; Aviation Regiment was formed here with MiG-15s, the first unit of the country&rsquo;s military aviation charged with defending its airspace. For half a century the base flew Soviet and then Chinese-built fighters; the town itself was renamed Qyteti Stalin (Stalin City) under the communist regime.<\/p>\n<p>The regiment became Ku&#231;ov&#235; Air Base in 1995, but the fighters were already worn out. According to the Ministry of Defence, the last flight from the base took place in October 2005, and for the next eighteen years the runway was silent. In 2018 NATO and the Albanian government agreed to rebuild it as an Alliance tactical air base, and on 4 March 2024 it reopened after a renewal of the runway, control tower, hangars, fuel and ammunition storage paid for largely from the NATO Security Investment Programme. NATO put the cost at about 50 million euros; Albanian figures range from 45.8 to 51 million euros, with more than 5 million euros added from the national budget.<\/p>\n<p>Today Ku&#231;ov&#235; is one of the Albanian Air Force&rsquo;s two air bases and the home of its three Bayraktar TB2 drones, which have flown surveillance, border and wildfire missions since 2024. Albania has no fighters; the jets seen here are allied visitors, such as the Eurofighters and F-16s of the reopening flypast. A second phase of NATO-supported works, including a fortified ammunition area, a training centre and a new perimeter road, was under way in 2025.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"divider\">\n<section id=\"sat\">\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">Satellite<\/div>\n<h2>Ku&#231;ov&#235; from above<\/h2>\n<div class=\"satfig\" id=\"satfig\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-label=\"Enlarge the satellite view\">\n<div class=\"satimg\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Ku&#231;ov&#235; Air Base seen from above\"><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"satzoom\">Click to enlarge<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"satcap\"><b>One runway, 2,840 m of concrete.<\/b><span>Imagery: Esri, Maxar, Earthstar Geographics and the GIS user community<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"satlb\" id=\"satlb\"><span class=\"satlbx\">Close<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"satbig\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Ku&#231;ov&#235; Air Base seen from above, enlarged\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<style>#mfam .satimg{background-image:url(\"https:\/\/server.arcgisonline.com\/ArcGIS\/rest\/services\/World_Imagery\/MapServer\/export?bbox=19.86018,40.75723,19.94362,40.78657\\26 bboxSR=4326\\26 imageSR=3857\\26 size=1600,743\\26 format=jpg\\26 f=image\")!important}#mfam .satbig{background-image:url(\"https:\/\/server.arcgisonline.com\/ArcGIS\/rest\/services\/World_Imagery\/MapServer\/export?bbox=19.86268,40.75210,19.94112,40.79170\\26 bboxSR=4326\\26 imageSR=3857\\26 size=2048,1365\\26 format=jpg\\26 f=image\")!important}@media(max-width:820px){#mfam .satimg{background-image:url(\"https:\/\/server.arcgisonline.com\/ArcGIS\/rest\/services\/World_Imagery\/MapServer\/export?bbox=19.88253,40.75723,19.92127,40.78657\\26 bboxSR=4326\\26 imageSR=3857\\26 size=760,760\\26 format=jpg\\26 f=image\")!important}}<\/style>\n<div id=\"sat-data\" data-js=\"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\"><\/div>\n<p><script>(function(){var el=document.getElementById(\"sat-data\");var js=decodeURIComponent(escape(atob(el.getAttribute(\"data-js\"))));var sc=document.createElement(\"script\");sc.text=js;document.body.appendChild(sc);})();<\/script><section class=\"pqband\">\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<figure class=\"pq\">\n<blockquote><p>The airbase will serve as an important NATO air hub.

The jet age arrived four years later at Ku&#231;ov&#235;. On 15 May 1955 the &ldquo;23 Peza&rdquo; Aviation Regiment was formed here, and the Ministry of Defence still calls it the first unit of Albanian military aviation charged with protecting the country&rsquo;s airspace. Its first equipment was the MiG-15, supplied while Albania was still in the Soviet camp.<\/p>\n<p>Ku&#231;ov&#235; was an obvious choice. The town sits on the Ku&#231;ova oil field, where Albania&rsquo;s first oil well was drilled in 1928, and under the communist regime it was renamed Qyteti Stalin. After the break with Moscow in the early 1960s the Air Force turned to China, and Ku&#231;ov&#235; flew Chinese-built copies of Soviet designs. Wikipedia&rsquo;s account of the Gjad&#235;r base records a squadron of Shenyang F-6s, the Chinese MiG-19, moving from Ku&#231;ov&#235; to the new northern base on 16 October 1976, which shows the type was flying here by then.<\/p>\n<p>The regiment survived the fall of communism and was renamed Ku&#231;ov&#235; Air Base in 1995. But the fleet was ageing with no replacement in sight. In November 2018 Defence Minister Olta Xha&#231;ka, presenting the defence budget at the base itself, reminded her audience that the last flight had been made in October 2005, after which the sky over Ku&#231;ov&#235; fell silent. Wikipedia dates the withdrawal of the last fighter jets to 2004; the ministry&rsquo;s date for the final flight from Ku&#231;ov&#235; is October 2005.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"ddet\">\n<summary><span class=\"dn\">02<\/span><span>A NATO decision: from 2018 to the start of works<\/span><span class=\"dx\">Read<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"dbody\">\n<p>The revival began as an Alliance project rather than a national one. In August 2018 Prime Minister Edi Rama announced that NATO would invest more than 50 million euros in the first phase of modernising Ku&#231;ov&#235;, and the ministry dates the joint NATO and Albanian decision to convert it into a tactical Alliance base to the same year. In May 2020 the ministry reported a NATO allocation of 51 million euros, with the NATO Support and Procurement Agency handling the project, and Defence Minister Xha&#231;ka said the base was closer to rebirth than ever.<\/p>\n<p>Dates for the start of work differ by source. NATO says renovation began with a ground-breaking ceremony in 2019. In February 2021 Defence Minister Niko Peleshi said work on the ground would begin that autumn, and the ministry held a formal start-of-works ceremony with the prime minister on 20 January 2022, when it gave the investment as about 45.8 million euros and set a completion target of autumn 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The scope was a complete rebuild: reconstruction of the runway and control tower, a new aircraft parking area, fuel storage, ammunition depots and loading stations, and a fire and crash rescue station. Peleshi said at the ceremony that the base sent a clear message to actors with ill intentions in the Western Balkans. The project ran a few months late; the ministry published the first pictures from inside the rebuilt base in February 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"ddet\">\n<summary><span class=\"dn\">03<\/span><span>Reopening day, 4 March 2024<\/span><span class=\"dx\">Read<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"dbody\">\n<p>Ku&#231;ov&#235; reopened on 4 March 2024. The guests included President Bajram Begaj, Prime Minister Rama, Speaker Lindita Nikolla, Defence Minister Peleshi and Italy&rsquo;s defence minister Guido Crosetto, the commander of NATO&rsquo;s Combined Air Operations Centre at Torrej&#243;n, General Juan Pablo S&#225;nchez de Lara, and the general manager of the NATO Support and Procurement Agency. After the speeches allied aircraft flew a display; the Albanian ministry lists Eurofighters, F-16s and Black Hawk helicopters.<\/p>\n<p>NATO described the project as its largest in Albania for a decade, costing about 50 million euros through the NATO Security Investment Programme, with renewed runways, control tower, hangars and storage. It said the base would support logistics, air operations and training for the Alliance as well as Albania&rsquo;s own needs. Albanian officials added that the government had put in more than 5 million euros of its own.<\/p>\n<p>The Air Force commander, Brigadier General Ferdinant Dimo, had spelled out the intended role a week earlier: Albanian Air Force troops would train at Ku&#231;ov&#235;, and NATO troops and aircraft could be accommodated, trained and flown from it. What the base does not have is an Albanian combat aircraft to fly from it; the fighters at the opening were visitors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"ddet\">\n<summary><span class=\"dn\">04<\/span><span>Drones, firefighters and phase two<\/span><span class=\"dx\">Read<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"dbody\">\n<p>The first Albanian aircraft to use the rebuilt runway were unmanned. Albania signed an agreement with Turkey&rsquo;s Baykar for Bayraktar TB2 drones on 20 December 2022 and released the first imagery from its three TB2s on 30 June 2024. That August, the ministry said, the drones had been flying for days in joint operations against wildfires and would soon move to round-the-clock monitoring; pilots had completed night-flying training.<\/p>\n<p>The same summer Ku&#231;ov&#235; became a firefighting hub. On 14 August 2024 two Romanian aircraft, a C-27J and a C-130, arrived to fight fires, their crews deployed to the base for about a week. In the 2025 fire season the drones again surveyed burned areas in the south of the country.<\/p>\n<p>Building work did not stop in 2024. In February 2025 the ministry reported a drone maintenance facility nearing completion and training facilities rebuilt; in March 2025, inspecting the base with the prime minister, Defence Minister Pirro Vengu described a second NATO-supported phase with a fortified ammunition and weapons depot, a finished training centre and 350 personnel, and mentioned guided bombs and loitering munitions received from Turkey. A tender for a perimeter road, underpass and fibre-optic network followed in December 2025. On 30 April 2026 the Air Force held its 75th anniversary ceremony at Ku&#231;ov&#235;.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"divider\">\n<section id=\"timeline\">\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">Timeline<\/div>\n<h2>Ku&#231;ov&#235;, year by year<\/h2>\n<div class=\"tl\">\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">1928<\/div>\n<p>Albania&rsquo;s first oil well is drilled at the Ku&#231;ova field, the industry around which the town grows.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">1955<\/div>\n<p>15 May: the &ldquo;23 Peza&rdquo; Aviation Regiment, Albania&rsquo;s first jet unit, is formed at Ku&#231;ov&#235; with MiG-15s.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">1976<\/div>\n<p>16 October: an F-6 squadron moves from Ku&#231;ov&#235; to the new Gjad&#235;r base, according to Wikipedia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">1995<\/div>\n<p>The regiment is renamed Ku&#231;ov&#235; Air Base.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2005<\/div>\n<p>October: the last flight from the base, according to the Ministry of Defence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2018<\/div>\n<p>NATO and Albania decide to rebuild the base as an Alliance tactical air base; in August Edi Rama announces NATO funding of more than 50 million euros.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2019<\/div>\n<p>Ground-breaking ceremony, according to NATO.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2022<\/div>\n<p>20 January: formal start of works, given by the ministry as about 45.8 million euros.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2022<\/div>\n<p>20 December: Albania signs for Bayraktar TB2 drones, later based here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2024<\/div>\n<p>4 March: the base reopens as a NATO tactical air base, with an allied flypast.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2024<\/div>\n<p>30 June: the ministry releases the first imagery from its three TB2s; in August the drones fly wildfire missions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2024<\/div>\n<p>14 August: Romanian C-27J and C-130 firefighting crews deploy to Ku&#231;ov&#235; for about a week.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2025<\/div>\n<p>18 March: Rama and Vengu inspect the second phase of works; the base has 350 personnel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2026<\/div>\n<p>30 April: the Air Force marks its 75th anniversary at Ku&#231;ov&#235;.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"divider\">\n<section id=\"incidents\">\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">Incidents &amp; stories<\/div>\n<h2>What happened here<\/h2>\n<div class=\"inc\">\n<article>\n<div class=\"incd\">October 2005<\/div>\n<h3>The last flight<\/h3>\n<p>Presenting the defence budget at Ku&#231;ov&#235; in November 2018, Defence Minister Olta Xha&#231;ka told her audience that the last flight from the base had taken place in October 2005, after which its airspace fell silent.
