Henoko Ordnance Ammunition Depot, Military ordnance storage facility in Henoko, Japan.

The Henoko Ordnance Ammunition Depot consists of multiple storage units covered with soil near Camp Schwab and Oura Bay in Okinawa Prefecture.

The facility has operated since the post-World War II period, marking the establishment of United States military presence throughout the Okinawa region.

Local residents regularly express concerns about the depot's safety through community meetings and discussions with defense authorities regarding environmental impacts.

The ammunition storage facility maintains strict security protocols and requires special clearance for access, with regular safety inspections conducted by military personnel.

A significant landslide occurred at the depot in September 2019, causing a 30-meter cliff to collapse near the facility's perimeter fence.
