What Juwata International Airport / Suharnoko Harbani AFB is known for

Juwata International Airport (IATA: TRK, ICAO: WAQQ) is an international airport serving Tarakan, the largest city in North Kalimantan, Indonesia.

History

As a result of the prolonged absence of international services, its international airport status was officially revoked in 2024. Established in 2006, the airbase was part of a broader strategy to enhance national defense against emerging threats and to support the operational needs of the 2nd Air Operations Command in Makassar. In 2014, a 183-meter taxiway was constructed to connect the civilian facilities to the military apron, which is capable of accommodating up to four Sukhoi Su-30 fighter jets and two C-130 Hercules transport aircraft simultaneously.
