New satellite images of Russia's kmeimim airbase outpost in Syria show work ongoing to extend one of its two main runways by around 1,000 feet, which would allow the base to support more regular deployments of larger and more heavily-laden aircraft, including heavy airlifters and even potentially bombers. The images also showed that extensions are being added to both ends of the western runway, bringing it from its previous length of approximately 9,500 feet, as it had been since 2015, to around 10,500 feet. A taxiway also appears to be being constructed to link the northern ends of the base’s two runways.
