KFTU-DT (channel 3) is a television station licensed to Douglas, Arizona, United States, serving as the Tucson market's outlet for the Spanish-language network UniMás. It is owned and operated by TelevisaUnivision alongside Green Valley–licensed Univision outlet KUVE-DT (channel 46). The two stations share studios on Forbes Boulevard in Tucson; KFTU's transmitter is located on Juniper Flats Road northwest of Bisbee.

KFTU-CD (channel 34) is a low-power, Class A television station licensed to Tucson that rebroadcasts KFTU-DT's signal to the city, as KFTU's coverage area falls well short of Tucson proper. KFTU-DT is also rebroadcast on KUVE-DT's second digital subchannel in order to reach the entire market; this signal can be seen on channel 46.2 from a transmitter atop Mount Bigelow. Likewise, KUVE is rebroadcast on KFTU's second digital subchannel. Master control and most internal operations for KFTU-DT and KUVE are based at the facilities of sister station KTVW-DT on 30th Street in southern Phoenix.

Like its sister station KFPH-DT (channel 13) in Flagstaff, KFTU brands itself as UniMás Arizona.
