In August 1956, the 393rd Guards Fighter Aviation Baranovichi Red Banner Order of Suvorov 3rd degree Regiment was transferred to this airfield.[1] It was part of the 10th Air Defence Division (of the 25th independent Air Defence Corps 1960-63 and then the Baku Air Defence District 1963-73). In 1973 10th Air Defence Division was merged into 12th Air Defence Corps. In October 1992 the 529th Fighter Aviation Regiment was aborbed into the regiment and it was retitled the 209th Guards Fighter Aviation Regiment now part of the 51st Air Defence Corps.

In April 1960 it moved to Astrakhan, as it was intended for combat training at the Ashuluk Range.[2]
