Sumbawanga Airport ( IATA: SUT, ICAO: HTSU) is an airport in western Tanzania serving the town of Sumbawanga in Rukwa Region. [3] The government has sought funds from the European Investment Bank for the upgrade of the airport. [4]
Stella Manyanga, the Rukwa Regional Commissioner has instead urged the government to construct a new airport at Kisumba village as the present facility does not have enough land for future expansion.
