[edit] History

The airport was built as a military one, and used by Yugoslav army air force.

During 1999 NATO bombing of former FR Yugoslavia, it was damaged.

On September 27, 2006 the Military of Serbia announced that it would sell Sjenica Airport therefore meaning that the airport will become public.

[edit] Future reconstruction

The management of Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport have visited Sjenica Airport on May 18, 2006, and announced plans of making a project aimed at turning this airport into a public one. The airport will mostly be used for cargo and possible tourist transport. Local companies confirmed their interest for this project.
