Borzya-2 (also referred to as Borzia, Borzyu, and Borzya Northwest) is an air base in Zabaykalsky Krai, Russia located 13 km west of Borzya.

The dispersal field for this airbase was Arabatuk, located 30 km away from Borzya.

From 1945 to mid-1961 the 189th Guards Fighter-Bomber Aviation Regiment (189 Gv APIB) (though a Shrumovik regiment 1945-56) had been stationed at various airfields in Poland.
