Location
Located at Buna due south of Cape Endaiadere, and to the south-east of the Buna Airfield (Old Strip), and on the western portion of the pre-war Duropa Plantation.

Construction
The Japanese began construction of a second, "new strip" that was a single runway.  It was only partially completed, then abandoned around the time the fighting began in the Buna area.

Today
After the battle, New Strip was abandoned and never used by the Allies. Today, it is overgrown with kunai grass.
