The shape hints this airfield has been previously used as (military) training site, possibly a outlaying field for a larger airbase for landing practice. The multiple runways normally suggests that landings could be practiced without cross-wind component. The lack of (larger) tarmac also points to previous OLF status. Runways were quite long for basic (prop aircraft) training purposes so this has probably been a intermediate (jet) training site.
