Orsha Airport - Balbasovo Air Base — Orsha, Belarus

Orsha Airport, also known as Balbasovo Air Base, is a military aviation facility located near Orsha in eastern Belarus. Rather than serving civilian commercial traffic, TXC functions primarily as an air base tied to the Belarusian armed forces, historically associated with military transport and training operations. The base has featured in regional security discussions given Belarus's strategic position between Russia and NATO member states in Eastern Europe. Orsha itself is an industrial city with a long military history dating back to Soviet-era installations. As a military facility, TXC operates under different protocols than public airports, with access generally restricted to authorized personnel and government-related activity rather than public air travel.
