Location
General Santos City, Philippines
Rajah Buayan Air Base is a Philippine Air Force installation located in General Santos City, in the Soccsksargen region of Mindanao. The base serves as an operational military facility and has historically shared airspace with the nearby General Santos International Airport (Francisco B. Reyes Airport), which handles commercial passenger traffic for the area. The air base is named after Rajah Buayan, a historical sultanate in the region, reflecting the local cultural heritage of Mindanao. Its primary function is military rather than commercial, supporting Philippine Air Force operations in the southern Philippines.
