Tarakan airstrip in May 1945
Juwata Airport[1] (Indonesian: Bandar Udara Juwata) (IATA: TRK, ICAO: WAQQ)[2] is a domestic airport in Tarakan, North Kalimantan, Indonesia. It is located on the island of Tarakan off the coast of Borneo. The airport was the main Allied objective during the Battle of Tarakan (1945). The airport is planned to be a transit hub for people from other countries such as Malaysia, Brunei and Philippines traveling to other cities in Indonesia.[3] Juwata Airport is a destination point of the ASEAN Single Aviation Market under Protocol I and II.
The airport area and runway is also shared with Suharnoko Harbani Air Force Base, a Type A airbase of the TNI-AU (Indonesian Air Force). The airbase is named after the former Minister of Industry of Indonesia, Suharnoko Harbani, who was also formerly an Air Force officer. Formed in 2006, the establishment of this air base is essentially part of the strategy and efforts to realize the defense of the country from the potential and development of threats that will threaten the Indonesia as well as the organization's demands from the Air Force Operations Command II in Makassar to facilitate control of its duties. Before the formation of the Air Base, there was already an Indonesian Air Force post which was under the Balikpapan Air Force Base but due to the development of situation and tension with Malaysia in Ambalat, the leadership of the Air Force decided to form a new airbase. Due to the airport is used both by military and civil aviation, so the apron is also used together. In 2014, the airport authority built a 183m taxiway to the military apron which can accommodate 4 Sukhoi and 2 Hercules aircraft together.[4]
During the 2010 Tarakan riot, negotiation between communities to end the conflict was held here.
