Location of RAF El Amiriya

El Amiriya was a pre–World War II airfield, first used in 1917. During World War II, the station was also referred to as Landing Grounds 85 - 99, 154 and 171–175. During World War II, it was used as a military airfield by the Royal Air Force and the United States Army Air Forces during the North African Campaign against Axis forces.

USAAF Ninth Air Force units which used the airfield were:

• 79th Fighter Group, 19 November 1942 – 14 January 1943, P-40 Warhawk^[1]
• 324th Fighter Group, December 1942 - 2 February 1943, P-40 Warhawk

After the war, the airfield appears to have been closed about 1946. Today, the area is abandoned with various concrete parts of the station still in evidence when viewed by aerial photography.
