Severomorsk-2


Severomorsk-2, Murmansk Northeast is a naval air base in Murmansk Oblast, Russia located 7 km southwest of Severomorsk and 11 km northeast of Murmansk.
The primary operator of Severomorsk-2 was 403 ODLAP operating Beriev Be-12PS search and rescue aircraft. It is a relatively small airfield compared to nearby Severomorsk-1, and was closed in 1998.
The base was home to the:
  • 38th Independent Shipborne Anti-Submarine Helicopter Regiment between 1981 and 1993.
  • 912th Independent Transport Aviation Regiment until 1960
  • 830th Independent Shipborne Anti-Submarine Helicopter Regiment between 1960 and 2001.
  • 524th Fighter Aviation Regiment VVS VMF between 1952 and 1960.
In mid-2022, Admiral Aleksandr Alekseyevich Moiseyev announced that the air base would be reconstructed.
