Killeen-Fort Hood Regional Airport (IATA: GRK, ICAO: KGRK) is a small military/commercial joint-use airport also known by its military designation as Robert Gray Army Airfield. The airport is based inside the south end of the Fort Hood Military Reservation (known as West Fort Hood), a few miles southwest of Killeen in unincorporated Bell County, Texas. The airport has a single runway. The commercial side replaced the old Killeen Municipal Airport (now Skylark Field), which was unable to expand.
