Ryan Airfield[1] (ICAO: KRYN, FAA LID: RYN), also known as Ryan Field,[2][3] is a city-owned, public-use airport located 12 miles (10 nmi; 19 km) southwest of the central business district of Tucson, a city in Pima County, Arizona, United States.[2] It is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a reliever airport.[4] It is mostly used for general aviation but also serves a significant amount of law enforcement and military helicopter activity. Approximately 50% of Ryan's traffic is training-related.

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned RYN by the FAA[2] but has no designation from the IATA[5] (which assigned RYN to Royan - Médis Airport in Royan, France).[6] The airport's ICAO identifier is KRYN.[7]
