This Fateh Jung airfield was lying unused for years before construction started late last year. It is interesting because of 3 nearby facilities directly involved in production and storage of Pakistani nuclear warheads and missiles. All within <1 hour drive.
A large dual-use airport is 14 km east and sees very little civilian traffic. So this one is very likely meant for military use, like 3 others within 40 km radius. IMF loans are being put to good use. Very nice. P.S.: 90 km from border with India.
