RAF Chelveston was a military base located near the village of Chelveston in Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom. During its operational life the base was occupied by both the Royal Air Force and the US Air Force. Flying operations ceased in the early-1960s with the relocation of the remaining squadron to RAF Alconbury. The base was closed soon after.

Except for the military housing area currently occupied by American servicemembers assigned to RAF Alconbury and RAF Molesworth, very little of RAF Chelveston remains today.
