Default shortest runway w/ an ILS?

recent thread has me wondering:

what's the shortest runway you've encountered with an ILS?

About the shortest I can think of offhand is the ILS 24 at
RID (Richmond, Indiana), 5500 ft.

We may have been somewhere w/ a shorter runway served by an
ILS, but probably didn't fly an ILS and I don't remember

Anyone else?

Thanks,
Sydney

About 600 feet -- CV 41 USS Midway.

I would have said CVT 16 USS Lexington, but I can't ever remember the ILS
working on Lex...
