Jervis Bay Territory Airport is the only airport of the Jervis Bay Territory, Australia. It is located about east of Sussex Inlet and about south of Jervis Bay Village and HMAS Creswell. It was opened in 1941 as a satellite airfield of Royal Australian Air Force Station, Nowra (now HMAS Albatross). It was primarily used to support torpedo training by No. 6 Operational Training Unit RAAF and search and rescue operations during World War II. During 1945 it was home to the Royal Navy Mobile Naval Air Base MONAB V (HMS Nabswick) and several Fleet Air Arm squadrons of the British Pacific Fleet.
