Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Closure Date

Unknown, but evidence suggests it was closed and fell into disuse prior to the early 2000s. Satellite imagery from 2003 shows the runway already in a state of significant decay.

Reason for Closure

The specific reason for closure is not officially documented. However, based on the airport's simple nature (a single, unpaved runway with no supporting infrastructure) and remote location, the most likely reason is abandonment due to economic non-viability or the cessation of the specific activity it was built to support, such as agricultural operations or a local industrial project.

Current Status

The site is completely abandoned and derelict. Satellite imagery shows a faintly visible, unpaved runway that is heavily weathered, overgrown with vegetation, and gradually being reclaimed by the surrounding agricultural landscape. There are no remaining buildings, hangars, or any other aviation infrastructure on the site. The land appears to be unused.

Historical Significance

Khadem Anlu Airport was a minor, unpaved airstrip. Its ICAO identifier, IR-0122, is an unofficial code used by data aggregators, indicating it was not a formally registered public or major military airport. Its primary purpose was likely for general aviation, specifically serving as an agricultural airstrip for crop dusting in the surrounding farmland, or as a private utility strip. It did not handle any scheduled passenger, commercial cargo, or significant military operations. Its historical significance is limited to its former local utility role.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Khadem Anlu Airport. Given its complete state of decay, lack of infrastructure, and the availability of larger, modern airports in the wider region (such as Mashhad International Airport), any prospect for reopening is considered nonexistent.
