Peter Zuze Air Force Base is an airbase located in the city of Ndola in the Copperbelt Province in northern Zambia.

On 30 July 2021, President Edgar Lungu decided to name this airbase after Zambia's first indigenous air commander, Peter Zuze.

[1][2][3] On 5 August 2021, President Edgar Lungu commissioned the opening of the new airport[4][5] adjacent to the Dag Hammarskjöld Crash Site Memorial, although it took another two months for all operations to complete moving to the new Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe International Airport from the old location (Peter Zuze Air Force Base).

[9] Itawa was the location of Ndola's Airport from the 1950s until late 2021, when it moved its operations to a new airport, also in Ndola, approximately 15 km (9.3 mi) west of the city centre by road; just north of the Dag Hammarskjöld Crash Site Memorial.

[10] The new airport was engineered by the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC International) at a cost of $397 million.
