Kibrit Air Base (formerly Kabrit Air Base[1]) is an operational Egyptian Air Force (Arabic: القوات الجوية المصرية, al-Qūwāt al-Gawwīyah al-Miṣrīyah) helicopter base located in Egypt, approximately 20 miles north of Suez and 125 km east of Cairo. An SA-342 Gazelle unit is based here. The name of the station came from a nearby village, and in Egyptian means "sulphur". Kabrit now is the name of a pilot station for Suez canal navigation on the same location.
