  Bardufoss Air Station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bardufoss Air Station was founded in 1938, and is situated in Troms, in the far north in Norway, just southeast of Andøya Air Station.
RAF Gloster Gladiators and Hawker Hurricanes operating from Bardufoss played a vital part in keeping the Luftwaffe at bay during the fighting on the Narvik front in the April-June 1940 Norwegian Campaign.
Fighters from Bardufoss also had the task of providing aerial support for naval operations in the area, but failed to scramble in time to defend the battleship Tirpitz, which was sunk by Avro Lancaster bombers at Håkøya near Tromsø.

 Sinking of German Battleship, Tirpitz, Nov 12,1944
That was the moment the radar picked them up, and within a minute the fighter operations room at Bardufoss knew that enemy bombers were closing on the Tirpitz.
Far below the basin seemed to sleep in the shadow, but Tirpitz broke the spell with a salvo, sparkling from stem to stern with flashes as billows of smoke from the guns wreathed her and drifted up.
Just after Tirpitz saw the bombers come over the mountain, a message came from Bardufoss that an enemy formation was over the airfield and the fighters could not take-off, but there were no Allied fighters for a thousand miles.
