It shares the airport&rsquo;s single runway, 11\/29, 2,700 m long. It was built under the 1993 Joint Defence Doctrine with Greece, handed to the defence ministry on 24 January 1998, and named, at President Clerides&rsquo;s suggestion, after the late Greek prime minister Andreas Papandreou. English Wikipedia describes a taxiway, hardened aircraft shelters and an integrated command and communications centre.<\/p>\n<p>Its point was always Greek air power: Cyprus has no fighters, and on 16 June 1998 four Greek F-16s landed here for the first time, prompting six Turkish F-16s to land in the north two days later. From 2002 the base was home to the Air Command&rsquo;s Mi-35P attack helicopters, now being replaced by the Airbus H145M.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2023 it has become a hub for allies: Saudi aircraft have staged through it, a US Air Force team surveyed it for upgrades in January 2025, and in March 2026, during the Iran war, Greek F-16s deployed here. The Cypriot government&rsquo;s position is that the base remains under the Republic&rsquo;s control and that foreign use is by permission, for humanitarian purposes such as evacuations.<\/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>Andreas Papandreou 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=\"Andreas Papandreou Air Base seen from above\"><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"satzoom\">Click to enlarge<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"satcap\"><b>One runway, 2,700 m of asphalt 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=\"Andreas Papandreou 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=32.44845,34.70439,32.52155,34.73228\\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=32.45064,34.69951,32.51936,34.73716\\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=32.46803,34.70439,32.50197,34.73228\\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<div class=\"pqrow\">\n<figure class=\"pq\">\n<blockquote><p>The landing of the Greek fighter jets at the Andreas Papandreou air base is within the framework of the implementation of the joint defence dogma.<\/blockquote><figcaption><b>Yiannakis Omirou<\/b><span>Cypriot Minister of Defence<\/span><span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hri.org\/news\/cyprus\/cmnews\/1998\/98-06-17.cmnews.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cyprus Mail, 17 June 1998<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"pq\">\n<blockquote><p>The bases will remain an integral part of the Republic and anyone wishing to use them can do so after seeking the permission of the state.<\/blockquote><figcaption><b>Yiannis Antoniou<\/b><span>Deputy government spokesman of the Republic of Cyprus<\/span><span><a href=\"https:\/\/cyprus-mail.com\/2025\/01\/23\/us-officials-visit-paphos-airbase-to-prepare-upgrade\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cyprus Mail, 23 January 2025<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<hr class=\"divider\">\n<section id=\"glance\">\n<div class=\"wrap\">\n<div class=\"kicker\">At a glance<\/div>\n<h2>Andreas Papandreou Air Base in numbers<\/h2>\n<div class=\"specgrid three\">\n<div class=\"spectable\">\n<h4>Location &amp; codes<\/h4>\n<dl>\n<dt>ICAO<\/dt>\n<dd>LCPH<\/dd>\n<dt>Country<\/dt>\n<dd>Cyprus<\/dd>\n<dt>District<\/dt>\n<dd>Paphos District<\/dd>\n<dt>Coordinates<\/dt>\n<dd>34.7183 N, 32.4850 E<\/dd>\n<dt>Elevation<\/dt>\n<dd>12 m <span class=\"imp\">(39 ft)<\/span><\/dd>\n<dt>Usage<\/dt>\n<dd>Military<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"spectable\">\n<h4>Runways &amp; facilities<\/h4>\n<dl>\n<dt>Runways<\/dt>\n<dd>1<\/dd>\n<dt>Designator<\/dt>\n<dd>11\/29<\/dd>\n<dt>Length<\/dt>\n<dd>2,700 m <span class=\"imp\">(8,858 ft)<\/span><\/dd>\n<dt>Surface<\/dt>\n<dd>Asphalt concrete<\/dd>\n<dt>Quick Reaction Alert<\/dt>\n<dd>No Cypriot fighters.

It was built so that Greece&rsquo;s could land. The base grew out of the Joint Defence Doctrine that Nicosia and Athens signed in 1993, and it sits on the north-eastern side of Paphos International Airport, sharing the civil runway. The Cyprus Mail reported that the contractors handed it to the defence ministry&rsquo;s technical staff on 24 January 1998 &ldquo;without a hint of ceremony&rdquo;, and that it was &ldquo;designed to serve Greek military aircraft&rdquo;.<\/p>\n<p>President Glafcos Clerides proposed naming it after Andreas Papandreou, the late Greek prime minister who, with Clerides, had launched the defence doctrine. Defence minister George Charalambides called it &ldquo;clearly a defensive work&rdquo; for use only if Cyprus were attacked. The Turkish Cypriot leader Rauf Denktash threatened to &ldquo;break the wings&rdquo; of any aircraft that took off from it, and the Turkish foreign ministry said it would bring the matter to the UN Secretary-General and the Security Council.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"ddet\">\n<summary><span class=\"dn\">02<\/span><span>June 1998: four F-16s and a reply from the north<\/span><span class=\"dx\">Read<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"dbody\">\n<p>The base proved its purpose within five months. A Greek C-130 landed on Monday 15 June 1998, and at about 10 am the next day four Greek F-16s touched down; all five aircraft had left for Greece before 2 pm. The Cyprus Mail noted that Paphos had also been designated as the home of the Russian S-300 missiles then due on the island. Defence minister Yiannakis Omirou said the landing proved the base &ldquo;operationally ready&rdquo; and carried a political message about the doctrine with Greece.<\/p>\n<p>Turkey&rsquo;s foreign ministry called the use of the base by Greek aircraft &ldquo;an extremely grave and provocative development&rdquo;. Two days later, around noon on 18 June, six Turkish F-16s landed at Lefkoniko airfield in the north; Denktash described it as &ldquo;merely restoring the equilibrium on the island&rdquo;. The S-300s never came to Paphos: according to English Wikipedia, citing The Guardian of 30 December 1998, the missiles went to Crete instead.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"ddet\">\n<summary><span class=\"dn\">03<\/span><span>The Hind years<\/span><span class=\"dx\">Read<\/span><\/summary>\n<div class=\"dbody\">\n<p>What the base did acquire was the Air Command&rsquo;s heaviest punch. English Wikipedia says Cyprus bought twelve new Mi-35P attack helicopters, serials 811 to 822, from Russia in 2001&ndash;2002. Aeroflight places 450 Squadron at Paphos from May 2002, when the old Helicopter-Seaplane Squadron was split in two, with the Mi-35Ps alongside the two PC-9 trainers and, until 2012, a single BN-2 Islander.<\/p>\n<p>The Hinds were never a comfortable fit for a small island force. On 5 July 2006 one crashed shortly after leaving the base, killing both crew. In 2022 Cyprus signed for six Airbus H145Ms, with an option on six more, to replace the eleven surviving Mi-35s, and AP reported that Serbia was interested in buying them; the first two H145Ms were delivered on 26 March 2025. Where the new helicopters are based is not stated in the sources checked.

On 23 January 2025 a US Air Force contingency response assessment team visited to study upgrades to airport operations, logistics and communications, with Washington offering to cover part or all of the cost; the government insisted the base would stay under Cypriot control.<\/p>\n<p>When Iranian-made drones struck the region in March 2026, Paphos airport&rsquo;s terminal was evacuated on 2 March after a suspicious object appeared on radar, and the deputy government spokesman said on 3 March that there were no American aircraft at the base. Greece sent F-16s the same month. Cyprus Mail, citing Proto Thema, reported in May that two would be stationed at Paphos, and in August defence minister Vasilis Palmas confirmed they were flying from Andreas Papandreou under existing bilateral protocols, while stressing that the deployment is temporary.<\/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>Andreas Papandreou, year by year<\/h2>\n<div class=\"tl\">\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">1982<\/div>\n<p>Paphos International Airport opens; the military base will later be built on its north-eastern side.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">1993<\/div>\n<p>Cyprus and Greece sign the Joint Defence Doctrine under which the base is built.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">1998<\/div>\n<p>24 January: contractors hand the base to the defence ministry without ceremony; it is named after Andreas Papandreou.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">1998<\/div>\n<p>16 June: four Greek F-16s land for the first time, after a Greek C-130 the day before; six Turkish F-16s land at Lefkoniko on 18 June.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">1998<\/div>\n<p>December: the S-300 missiles once destined for Paphos are sent to Crete instead.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2002<\/div>\n<p>May: 450 Squadron forms at Paphos with the new Mi-35P attack helicopters, per Aeroflight.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2006<\/div>\n<p>5 July: a Mi-35P crashes after take-off from the base, killing both crew.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2013<\/div>\n<p>April: English Wikipedia says the Gazelles move here as Lakatamia closes (disputed).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2022<\/div>\n<p>Cyprus orders six H145Ms to replace the eleven remaining Mi-35s.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2023<\/div>\n<p>26 May: eight Saudi Hawks and two C-130s refuel at the base.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2025<\/div>\n<p>23 January: a USAF contingency response team surveys the base for upgrades. 26 March: the first two H145Ms are delivered.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tl-item\">\n<div class=\"yr\">2026<\/div>\n<p>2 March: Paphos airport evacuated during the drone attacks.
