De Peel Air Base, Military airbase in Vredepeel, Netherlands.
De Peel Air Base occupies a strategic position at an elevation of 30 meters, featuring a single runway and military installations spanning across forested terrain.
The German Luftwaffe constructed the initial grass airstrip in June 1944, which later transformed into a Royal Netherlands Air Force base during the Cold War period.
The facility maintains strong connections with Dutch military heritage through its transition from an air force base to the current Lieutenant General Best Barracks.
The base contains two operational helispots and maintains communication frequencies of 127.265 for Biter TWR and 123.180 for RAPCON South operations.
The base retains capabilities for potential reactivation, with recent exercises in 2022 including approach and departure procedures without actual landings.
