It was in use during the 1950s and has been abandoned near the end of the Cold War. It has a spartan layout, unimproved pads, if any, and alert strip feeding directly onto runway threshold, thus it may have been used by a Soviet Anti-Air Defense regiment. It is now the location of Pionersky Radar Station.
