RAF St Jean

Royal Air Force St Jean or more simply RAF St Jean is a former Royal Air Force station in Palestine, now Israel, which is located approximately 4 km east-northeast of Acre and 100 km north-northeast of Tel Aviv.

When located in the British Mandate of Palestine during the Second World War the airfield was used as a military airfield by the Royal Air Force and the United States Army Air Forces of America during the North African Campaign against Axis forces.

147 Squadron RAF began to assemble at St. Jean in January 1942, but when no Consolidated Liberator aircraft could be made available, the ground crews were attached to other units.

The area today is a collection of agricultural fields.
