Guatemalan Air Force
The Guatemalan Air Force (Fuerza Aérea Guatemalteca) dates itself to 1921, watched a CIA-run air campaign topple the government in 1954, flew Mustangs, T-33s and then A-37s and PC-7s through a 36-year civil war in which a UN-backed commission found that state agents committed acts of genocide, and in 2026 is a small helicopter and transport force with three A-37s left, a light-attack gap it has twice failed to fill, and a newly lifted US arms embargo.
The Guatemalan Air Force story: a flying school at La Aurora, the 1954 coup and an unfilled attack role
1920–1945: a flying school on the La Aurora farm
Guatemalan military flying began with a French training mission, which opened a flying school in 1920 according to English Wikipedia. On 30 June 1921, Spanish Wikipedia records, the Escuela Militar de Mecánicos de Aviación moved formally to the La Aurora farm on the southern edge of the capital, with a Blériot XI-2, a Deperdussin and two Avro 504Ks; the service still counts 1921 as its birth year, and AGN reported the 102nd anniversary on 15 December 2023. The field at La Aurora, used for flying from 1923, became the centre of everything. A Cuerpo de Aviación Militar was set up in 1929 and Potez 25s and Wacos followed. The Second World War brought lend-lease aid, seven Boeing P-26s, armed T-6 Texans and trainers in 1943, and a first paved runway at La Aurora in 1942, built as part of a US military base. Decree 59 of 5 May 1945 reorganised the air corps; English Wikipedia dates the name Fuerza Aérea Guatemalteca to 1948.
1954: the coup decided from the air
In June 1954 the decisive aircraft over Guatemala were not Guatemalan. The CIA’s Operation PBSuccess backed Carlos Castillo Armas’s small invasion force with P-47s and transports flying from Managua; with little payload, crews dropped dynamite and Molotov cocktails to make noise. English Wikipedia’s account, drawing on the declassified record, says the raids did little material damage but had a significant psychological impact. By 22 June only one P-47 was serviceable; Allen Dulles arranged three more through William Pawley, which went into action on 23 June. On 27 June a raid on Puerto San José hit the British freighter Springfjord, for which the CIA paid about a million dollars in compensation, and President Jacobo Árbenz resigned that day. What the Guatemalan Air Force itself did in those days was not confirmed in the sources checked and is left out.
1960–1996: Mustangs, Dragonflies and the civil war
The post-coup air force was rebuilt with American help: Spanish Wikipedia counts 20 F-51D Mustangs delivered between July 1954 and March 1962, eight A-26 Invaders in 1960 and, from January 1963, eight T-33s, the first jets. Guatemala also lent its soil to the CIA: the Bay of Pigs brigade trained its B-26 crews at a new airfield near Retalhuleu in 1960. The civil war began the same year. According to English Wikipedia, the air force began bombing MR-13 guerrilla bases in Izabal in February and March 1964, and from 1971 the Cessna A-37B Dragonfly became its counter-insurgency jet; the A-37 article records one lost in action in 1985. The UN-backed Commission for Historical Clarification (CEH) attributed 93 per cent of the violations it documented to state forces and found that state agents committed acts of genocide against Maya groups in 1981–1983. How the air arm figured in those findings was not set out in the CEH conclusions checked.
Embargo years: Israel, Switzerland and the Arava
In 1977 the Carter administration cut military aid to Guatemala over human rights, and the air force turned elsewhere. Spanish Wikipedia lists eleven IAI Arava transports from Israel in 1976–1977, French Lama and Alouette III helicopters, and Pilatus PC-7s from Switzerland in 1979–1980 (English Wikipedia says twelve), alongside Bell helicopters through the 1980s. The force also had a foreign-policy role: during the Belize dispute of 1970–1971 English Wikipedia records T-33 reconnaissance and a deployment of Mustangs to Tikal. Bases spread outward — a northern base in Petén in 1981, a southern base at Retalhuleu in 1989, where the flying school moved from La Aurora. The war ended with the peace accords of December 1996. Infodefensa describes the US restriction on arms sales that followed as an embargo of almost 50 years.
2003–2026: three commands, helicopters and an unfilled attack role
Since a 2003 reorganisation the FAG has been organised in three air commands — Central at La Aurora, North at Mundo Maya in Petén and South at Retalhuleu — with the flying school at Retalhuleu and the technical school at La Aurora. Its combat fleet has dwindled: FlightGlobal’s 2025 count, as tabulated by Wikipedia, is three A-37Bs and two PC-7s, against a working fleet of Cessna Caravans, King Airs, PC-12s and some twenty Bell helicopters. Two attempts to buy a replacement failed: six Super Tucanos in 2013, abandoned by President Otto Pérez Molina over an alleged overprice, according to Infodefensa, and two Pampa IIIs in 2019, cancelled nine days after the order according to Jane’s. In March 2026 Infodefensa reported that the United States had lifted the arms embargo; the defence minister said no agreement had yet been signed, and light attack aircraft to intercept drug flights head the air force’s wish list.

How the Guatemalan Air Force is organised
A component of the Guatemalan Army under the Ministry of National Defence, organised since 2003 in three air commands — Central, North and South — with a flying school and a technical school. The light attack force is down to three A-37Bs and two PC-7s in FlightGlobal’s 2025 count, beside a working fleet of Caravans, King Airs, PC-12s and some twenty Bell helicopters; purchases of Super Tucanos in 2013 and Pampa IIIs in 2019 both fell through. In March 2026 Infodefensa reported that the United States had lifted its arms embargo.
Guatemalan Air Force Command
The air force is a component of the Guatemalan Army under the Ministry of National Defence, with its headquarters on the military side of La Aurora International Airport. The state news agency AGN named Juan Carlos Ponce Valdez as commander in December 2023; whether he is still in post after the change of government in January 2024 could not be confirmed. The Minister of National Defence under President Bernardo Arévalo is Gen. Henry Sáenz.
Central Air Command
One of the three air commands created by Acuerdo Gubernativo 312-2003 of 19 May 2003, covering most of the country outside Petén and the Pacific coast. A Bell 407GX lost on the Chixoy river in December 2024 had departed from it, according to Infodefensa; no other unit-to-aircraft disposition was published.
Northern Air Command
On the Petén international airport at Santa Elena, where a northern base was established in 1981; a regional command since 2003, covering Petén and northern Quiché and Alta Verapaz. Its aircraft types were not confirmed.
南部航空軍
The southern base opened in 1989 and has been a regional command since 2003, covering Quetzaltenango, San Marcos, Retalhuleu, Suchitepéquez, Escuintla, Santa Rosa and Jalapa. Its aircraft types were not confirmed.
Military Aviation School
At La Aurora from 1947 until its move to Retalhuleu in 1989, according to Spanish Wikipedia. The PC-7, twelve bought from Switzerland in 1979–1980 by English Wikipedia’s count, is the air force’s listed trainer and light attack aircraft, with two left in FlightGlobal’s 2025 count; its basing at Retalhuleu was not confirmed on an official page.
Military Aviation Technical School
The military aviation technical school at La Aurora, dated to 1983 by Spanish Wikipedia.
Presidential Squadron
Listed among the air force’s support units by English Wikipedia; its base and aircraft were not confirmed. The 2025 count lists two King Air B200s and three Bell 412s as VIP aircraft, among some eleven transports and about twenty helicopters.

Where the Guatemalan Air Force flies from
Black pins are active bases; none of the four mapped here has closed. La Aurora, on Guatemala’s main international airport, has been the centre of military flying since 1923 and holds the headquarters and the Central Air Command; the Northern Air Command flies from Mundo Maya in Petén and the Southern from Retalhuleu. Spanish Wikipedia lists Puerto San José and Puerto Barrios as further operating sites. Entries with no published aerodrome data carry no pin.
