K-1 Air Base, Military air base in Kirkuk province, Iraq

The K-1 Air Base stretches across a strategic location 15 kilometers northwest of Kirkuk city, featuring multiple runways and military installations.

In 2003, Coalition forces captured the base during Operation Iraqi Freedom, establishing it as headquarters for the 12th Division of the Iraqi Army.

The base employs numerous Iraqi-American language specialists who facilitate communication between U.S. military personnel and local Iraqi security forces.

K-1 Air Base maintains training centers where Iraqi Security Forces receive military instruction from international coalition specialists.

The surrounding Hamrin Mountains near K-1 Air Base contain complex tunnel networks that require specialized military operations.
