I'm curious if this is still maintained as an emergency highway landing strip.

Looks like another former Soviet airstrip. The runway pavement is seriously decayed.

There are no markings and no signs of aircraft, but the pavement looks like it may still be usable. I'm guessing this is another former Soviet airbase.

This airport appears to be closed -- the outline of the former runway is barely visible in the satellite view.

From the advanced decay of the runway pavement, it looks like this airstrip (former Soviet airbase?) is closed. Can anyone confirm?
