INS Dega naval base
Main article: INS DegaThe Indian Navy started aviation operations in Visakhapatnam in the late 1970s, with the construction of four helipads adjacent to the civil airfield. The airport at Visakhapatnam was transferred to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation in 1981. Additional hangars, maintenance facilities and an operations complex were constructed soon after. The air station was called "Naval Air Station, Visakhapatnam".
On 21 October 1991, the air station was renamed and formally commissioned as INS Dega. The base has two aprons and is home to several squadrons: INAS 311, INAS 321, INAS 333, and INAS 350.
