Bunge Airbase (ICAO: ESVB) is a privately owned airfield. It is situated south of Fårösund on the northern part of the island of Gotland, Sweden. In 1937, work began on the construction of an airfield near the naval air base in Fårösund. Twenty bombers were to be stationed on the island, and together with naval and coastal artillery defenses their purpose was to defend northern Gotland. The runways and hangars were completed in 1939, and in the early summer of 1940 fighter planes from the J 9 division were temporarily moved to Bunge from Göta Wing (F 9). In July, both F 9 divisions and the J 8 division were moved to Bunge, where the latter was used for training purposes by the Swedish Air Force. In 1943, B 3 bombers from the Västmanland Wing, and S 16 and S 17 aircraft from Södermanland Wing (F 11) were moved to the airbase. More information...
