FACTS AND HISTORY | It was renamed Major Danilo Atienza Air Base (MDAAB) in honor of Major Danilo Atienza, an F-5A jet fighter pilot who failed to pull out during a bombing run and crashed in the area while leading a trio of F-5’s to destroy the RAM-SFP "air force" during the December 1989 Coup attempt. The Base houses the "Broncos", "TurboChargers" and "Defenders" aircraft of 15th Strike Wing. The so called "macho unit" of the PAF is responsible for the main close air support (CAS) and counter insurgency (COIN) air support operations of the AFP.
