Nevatim Israeli Air Force Base (ICAO: LLNV) is one of the three principal airfields of the Israeli Air Force located southeast of Be'er Sheva, near the village of Nevatim. It was built as a rough runway in 1947 for the Sherut Avir, the air wing of the Haganah, and was named Malhata. It was reopened in 1983 as a new modern airbase with 2 runways as the result of joint Israeli and US government funding as part of the IAF's redeployment out of its bases in the Sinai after it was returned to Egypt following the Camp David Accords. In the late 1990s Turkish aircraft may have operated there under an Israeli-Turkish military cooperation agreement. Since 2003 the base has gradually received more squadrons of F-16s.nSee also:nwww.globalsecurity.org/military/world/israel/nevatim.ht...
