Naval Air Engineering Station Lakehurst, the former name of the Lakehurst part of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, is a United States Air Force-managed Joint Base located approximately east-southeast of Trenton in Manchester Township in Ocean County, New Jersey, United States. It is the Northeast's largest naval aviation center. Lakehurst is under the jurisdiction of the Air Mobility Command (AMC).

Also known as Maxfield Field, the host unit at Lakehurst is the United States Air Force 87th Air Base Wing (87 ABW). The 87 ABW provides installation management to all of JB MDL.〔(Mission Partners ) webpage. Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JB MDL) official website. Retrieved 2010-06-18.〕
Its history begins as a munitions-testing site for the Imperial Russian Army in 1916.〔http://www.jointbasemdl.af.mil/units/lakehurst/〕 It was then gained by the United States Army as Camp Kendrick during World War I. The United States Navy purchased the property in 1921 for use as an airship station and renamed it Naval Air Station Lakehurst.〔(Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst Lakehurst ).

The Navy's lighter-than-air program was conducted at Lakehurst through the 1930s. It was the site of the 1937 LZ 129 Hindenburg airship disaster.

Since the 1950s, aviation boatswain's mates have been trained at Lakehurst to operate catapults and arresting systems on aircraft carriers.
