Hatzor is an Israeli Air Force military airbase, located in central Israel, near kibbutz Hatzor after which it is named. Hatzor Airbase began its life as a British base known as Qastina. With the British withdrawal from Israel, soldiers from the Givati brigade took control of the base. A few months later the "First Fighter" Squadron was relocated from Herzliya Airfield. Hatzor has a network of eight simulator pods, which use satellite footage of border countries including Lebanon and Syria, to train pilots for deep strike missions.
