Soto Cano Air Base

Also known as Palmerola Air Base

Soto Cano Air Base, formerly Palmerola, is a Honduran air base near Comayagua in central Honduras that has hosted a United States military presence, Joint Task Force-Bravo, since the 1980s. During the Central American wars it was a centre of the US military build-up in Honduras, and it is still used for regional security operations and disaster relief.
