Pleiku AirBase is a former air force base in Vietnam. It was established by the Republicof Vietnam Air Force (RVNAF) in 1962 at an undeveloped airstrip and was used bythe United States Air Force during the Vietnam War in the II Corps TacticalZone of South Vietnam. It was captured by the People\'s Army of Vietnam (PAVN)in March 1975 and was abandoned for many years.

As NorthVietnamese infiltration increased within and along the Laotian and Cambodianborders the importance of Pleiku Air Base increased, and base facilities wereexpanded and improved by American Army and Air Force civil engineering units.
