Kazlų Rūda Air Base (Lithuanian: Kazlų Rūdos aerodromas) is an air strip in Lithuania located 5 km northeast of Kazlų Rūda. It was built during the Soviet times for military purposes and officially opened in 1977. It had a secret underground facility that became publicly known only in 1993 when last Soviet soldiers left the compound. Today it is abandoned.
