Overview:

With the area's abundant fuel supply and airfield, Palembang offered significant potential as a military base to both the Allies and the Japanese. In January, the American-British-Dutch-Australian Command (ABDACOM) decided to concentrate Allied air forces in Sumatra at two airfields near Palembang: Pangkalan Benteng, also known as "P1" and a secret air base at Prabumulih (Praboemoelih), or "P2". While the Allied planes attacked the Japanese ships on 13 February, Kawasaki Ki-56 transport planes of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Chutai, Imperial Japanese Army Air Force (IJAAF), dropped Teishin Shudan (Raiding Group) paratroopers over Pangkalan Benteng airfield.
Attacker: Japanese (Elements of 2nd and 4th Companies, 2nd Raiding Regiment, 1st Raiding Brigade)
Defender: Australian/Dutch (Elements of Aerodrome Defense Force)
