Hahn Air Base
was a frontline NATO facility in Germany for over 40 years during
the Cold War. It is located 10 km (6.25 miles) from the town of
Kirchberg and 20 km (12.5 miles) from the town of
Simmern in the Rhein-Hunsrück district of
Rhineland-Palatinate to the west of central Germany.
It was the home of the United States Air Force 50th
Fighter Wing (in various designations) for most of those years as part of
the United States Air Forces in Europe (USAFE). It was one of several USAFE
bases in Germany
(Zweibrucken Air Base, Ramstein, Sembach, Bitburg,
Spangdahlem, and Rhein-Main) all within 100 km (62.5 miles) of each
other. Beyond their location in the heart of US
troop concentrations, these air bases were well situated to reach all
locations within Europe and the
Mediterranean region.
