Staying with airports named after Nobel laureates.....this Nobel winner could be said to have invented the means by which all airliners these days get around.

Bologna Airport, named after nobel prize winner Guglielmo Marconi. He got the prize for his research in wireless telegraphy (radio). Until GPS came around commercial airplanes travel the world mostly from radio beacon to radio beacon. And even GPS would not work without radio communication either.

Third hint, it's a military base.

It has to be guessed today, cause tomorrow I won't have internet access for a few days.
It's in Russia.

That's the one. And just in time too. Another half hour and I would have posted my next hint: "first to say Zhukovsky gets to do the next one". 
See ya in a week and a bit.
