Umbozero (air base)

Umbozero (also Umba) is a Soviet Naval Aviation and Russian Navy reserve airfield in Murmansk Oblast, Russia located in the southwest Kola Peninsula 3 km north of Umbozero. It is located 165 km southeast of Murmansk. This airfield provides 20 revetments for combat aircraft.
Umbozero was identified in the early 1960s by US reconnaissance aircraft, but only a few aircraft were observed at the airfield. In summer 1967 the runway was being paved. No regiment is believed to have been assigned permanently to the base, and as it contains almost no infrastructure it is thought to be a dispersal airfield for tactical aircraft.
Umbozero South airfield.
A nearby airfield with a 3000 m runway, listed on charts as "Umbozero South", exists 16 km south of Umbozero airfield. Like Umbozero, it has almost no infrastructure. It is also categorized as a naval reserve airfield. It was one of nine Arctic staging bases for the Tupolev Tu-22M (Backfire).
