Vorkuta Sovetskiy (also known as Vorkuta East) is a military airfield in the Komi Republic, Russia located 11 km east of Vorkuta. It contains one of the largest runways in Russia's Arctic region. Sovetskiy was built in the 1950s as a staging base for intercontinental strategic bomber strikes (as the so-called 'bounce' airdrome), and is maintained by OGA (Arctic Control Group). The 364 OSAE (364th Independent Composite Aviation Squadron) was based here, but it is unknown what type of aircraft were operated.
