Chita Northwest is an air base in Russia located 5 km northwest of Chita. It is also informally called "Cheryomushki". Located on Chita's north side, this base contains a number of hangars and ramp areas. It is not to be confused with Chita Kadala Airport 10 km to its southwest. It is the home of the 112th Independent Helicоpter Regiment.

The airport was built at the end of the 1920s and previously did receive civilian aircraft. During Second World War, units of the 12th Air Army were stationed here. In 2014, the runway was reconstructed.

In 2002 the 112th Independent Helicopter Regiment came under the control of the 11th Air and Air Defence Forces Army and arrived at the airfield. The regiment had been created on 29 July 1968 from the previous 172nd Independent Helicopter Squadron.
