Gorin is a former air base in Khabarovsk Krai, Russia located 4 km SW Gorin, Amur, and 75 km northwest of Komsomolsk-na-Amure. It contained a 1 km long remote ramp on the north side. A noteworthy major, but remote airfield. It may have been intended for dispersion of intermediate-range bombers during a Sino-Soviet conflict.[1]
