Weelde Air Base (ICAO: EBWE) is a NATO reserve airfield located in Weelde, a village in the Ravels municipality in Belgium. It is operated by the Belgian Air Component that has no military flight operations at that location, besides aircraft arriving to be stored or leaving storage, for example retired F-16 aircraft.[2] The Belgian Air Component also uses the airfield for the activities of the Belgian Air Cadets.

Weelde Air Base is also publicly accessible as a light general aviation field and home to the gliding club "Kempische Aero Club".
