Baltiysk is a former air base in Kaliningrad Oblast at the north of Vistula Spit a natural cape, Russia located 5 km southwest of Baltiysk on the opposite site of natural outlet. Constructed in the 1930s by the German airforce, Soviet airforce took this place over after 1945 and it used to be Russia's westernmost air base. It has been deactivated in the 1990s and Google Earth imagery shows it to be in a severe state of decay. It appears to house a small number of interceptor alert pads.
