The Air Force Base is an unlockable Landmark Reward Building for SimCity 4 Rush Hour/Deluxe, released as the Plugin Pack 007 Free Downloadable Content, also known as the Transportation Pack, and was originally provided on a CD-ROM given to people who preordered SimCity 4 Rush Hour at certain American retailers.

It provides no services aside from a cap increase and access to the Military Base U-Drive-It vehicles without the overwhelmingly negative effects of the Military Base.

Due to the noise generated by the base, it lowers the Mayor Rating of all residents in a 440 tile radius, radiates a 90 point Park effect penalty over a 36 tile radius, but provides a 20 point Landmark effect over a 9 tile radius due to Air Shows.

It also significantly bolsters the local Manufacturing Industry, providing a 100,000 I-M Cap increase, more than any other building.

Unique Features

The Air Force base is the only known building which can grow on the unimplemented Airport zone without modification, which it is a Stage 3 building for.

Trivia

This building was instrumental in mapping out SimCity 4's DAT file format and the DBPF file format as a whole. The DAT file it came in was the first DBPF file decoded by the community and its building exemplar the first decoded thanks to it being on the Preorder CD.

The Air Force Base interferes with Area 5.1, resulting in the two not able to exist in the same city simultaneously. It is unknown if this is intentional.

There is evidence that this file contains some late implementations of content originally intended to be included in Rush Hour but cut before the game went Gold. The Air Force Base is the most obvious example since it was released in a playable state, however there are trace files of other unfinished U-Drive-It vehicles like a Paddle Steamer.
