During peacetime, its main tasks were routine border patrol and airspace surveillance. Constructed among mountainous terrace, pilot landing at this base requires excellent skill and technology. Several hangars are established here, in peculiar topography following the mountain surface. Known as "Alert Hangar" during standby status, the design of the hangar helps pilots of immediate scramble to take off quickly. All the hangars are built really close to the runway.Thus Ustian Air Base is famous for the two mecenaries Cipher and Pixy of the 66th AFU Galm. The 4th AFU Crow Squadron is also based here.

In the beginning of the War, the Valais Air Force base was targeted by a Belkan Air Force bomber squadron. Osean and Ustian planes were quickly sent out to intercept and destroy the enemy squadrons.

The air base was heavily damaged by the XB-0 and Sapinish squadron. The last time that Valais Air Force Base is ever seen is after the game. Cipher flys back to the base and several months later, disappeared. The air base's status after the Belkan War is unknown. Since Ustio remained neutral and was never invaded again.
