Kurosaki Airfield

The airfield was closed following the surrender of Japan and the end of World War II. As a provisional military facility built specifically for homeland defense, it was decommissioned as part of the nation's demilitarization.

The site of the former airfield is now completely repurposed. The land is primarily used for agriculture, famous for growing daikon radishes and cabbage. A significant portion of the area is occupied by the J-WAVE Kurosaki Transmitting Station, a major radio broadcast facility for Tokyo's J-WAVE FM radio station (81.3 MHz), easily identifiable by its large antenna array. The coastal area, known as Kurosaki-no-hana (黒崎の鼻), is a scenic spot popular for hiking and recreation. There are no visible remnants of the original runway or military structures.

Kurosaki Airfield, known historically as Kurosaki Provisional Airfield (黒崎仮設飛行場), was a late-war Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) facility. Constructed hastily in 1944-1945, its primary mission was to serve as a forward operating base for fighter-interceptors, such as the Mitsubishi J2M Raiden, belonging to the elite Yokosuka Naval Air Group. Its strategic location on the Miura Peninsula was critical for defending the Tokyo-Yokohama metropolitan area and the vital Yokosuka Naval Base from Allied B-29 bomber raids during the final months of World War II.

There are no plans or prospects for reopening Kurosaki Airfield. The land has been used for agriculture and critical broadcasting infrastructure for decades and is a designated scenic area. Re-establishing an aviation facility at this location is not considered feasible or desirable.
