Warsaw-Radom Airport (officially Port Lotniczy Warszawa-Radom im. Bohaterów Radomskiego Czerwca 1976 Roku) (IATA: RDO, ICAO: EPRA) is a modern joint civil-military international airport in central Poland serving Radom and the wider Masovian region. Located in the Sadków district, approximately 3-4 km east of Radom’s city centre, the airport occupies a strategic position roughly 90-100 km south of Warsaw, positioning it as both a regional gateway and a potential aviation relief option for Poland’s capital region. The airport operates a single 2,500 m runway (07/25) and modern passenger infrastructure designed for scheduled and charter operations.

The airfield’s history reaches back to the late 1920s and is rooted in training rather than commercial transport. The site was developed as an aviation facility during the early years of Poland’s independence, quickly becoming an important centre for flight instruction. During the 1930s, Sadków expanded within Poland’s aviation education system, focusing on preparing military pilots with hangars, workshops and training infrastructure rather than passenger-oriented buildings.

During the Second World War, the airfield was attacked in 1939 and later taken over by the Luftwaffe, serving as a base supporting operations on the Eastern Front. As the front shifted westward, the airport suffered repeated damage and was heavily degraded during the final stages of German withdrawal. Polish forces returned in 1945, and the airfield was gradually restored, continuing for decades as a training base for the Polish Air Force through the Cold War period.

From the late 20th century onward, Sadków gained wider public recognition through aviation events, culminating in the Radom Air Show, one of the best-known air shows in Poland. At the same time, local ambitions to introduce civilian passenger operations intensified, leading to the first attempt at a civil airport in the 2010s. Despite certification and initial services, the early civil chapter proved economically fragile and ended with bankruptcy in 2018.

A decisive turning point followed with a state-led redevelopment. From 2019 the airport underwent comprehensive reconstruction, including a new passenger terminal and major airfield upgrades, and reopened to scheduled passenger traffic in April 2023.

Today, EPRA represents a hybrid facility combining military heritage, modern civilian infrastructure, and a developing commercial role within Poland’s airport network.
