Komakuk Beach DEW Line Station Airport serves Komakuk Beach, CA.
Komakuk Beach DEW Line Station (CA-0196) was a Distant Early Warning Line site located in Komakuk Beach, California.
The station was part of the DEW Line, a system of radar stations built across the Arctic to detect incoming Soviet bombers during the Cold War. It was likely closed in the late 1980s or early 1990s as the DEW Line was deactivated and replaced by the North Warning System. The site is now classified as closed, and its current status likely involves remediation efforts due to environmental concerns associated with former DEW Line sites.
