Martuba Airbase

Martuba Airbase is a Libyan Air Force (Arabic: القوات الجوية الليبية, Berber: Adwas Alibyan Ujnna) base in the Derna District of Libya, located approximately 27 kilometres (17 mi) south-southeast of Derna, and 268 kilometres (167 mi) east-northeast of Benghazi.

[4] Following the British victory at El Alamein during the Second World War, the airfield at Maturba[5][6] saw heavy fighting in 1942,[7][8] as Rommel's Afrika Korps was pushed back from the Egyptian border.

The runway has an additional 300 metres (980 ft) paved overrun on each end.

An Aeritalia G.222 is stored on the ramp, but this section of the base appears to be a reserve facility.

The site is also used for the transportation of oil field workers from production facilities in the area.
