work in progress

Kobler Field operated as the main airfield on Saipan until 7/25/76, when operations were moved to Saipan International Airport a few miles to the southeast.

Following its closure, Kobler Field was redeveloped as Koblerville, a residential housing area, with the runway becoming Koblerville Road.

The LORAN navigation station at the end of Kobler Field was operated by the Coast Guard until January 1978.
