Tanagra is the homebase of 114 PM, one of the wings of the Hellenic Air Force. The 114 CW was formed on August 22, 1956, at Tanagra Airport. At that date, the 341, 342 and 343 Interception Squadrons were integrated with F-86E Sabre aircraft. Later, T-33As were based here with 361 sq. In 1964 it was time for the F-104G to be based here, which were replaced by the F-102A Delta Dagger after the Starfighters were moved to Araxos. In the beginning of 1977 the F-102As were retired and replaced by the Mirage F-1CGs with the 332 and 342 squadrons. The Mirage 2000EGs entered service in 1988 and replaced the F-1s of 332 sq. In 2003 342 squadron was disbanded and the F-1CG was retired. At this moment the 331 sq flies the Mirage 2000EG, while 332 sq is transferring to the new Mirage 2000-5.
Tanagra has one runway, with the dispersal area for 331 sq to the north, and the dispersal area of 332 sq to the south. HAI is located in the southeast corner of the field.
The airbase Tanagra is located close to the highway E75, from Athens to Thessaloniki. It is located between the city of Shimatari and Tanagra. There are signs towards the HAI and 114 PM.
