This airfield is "secretly" operated by the CIA. It was originally used by wealthy Arab sheiks for falconry expeditions.
1. What is the name of the airfield, and the country in which it is located?
2. What primary aircraft is it designed to accommodate?
Bonus question:
4. Who or what is the primary target of those CIA aircraft?

| Obviously an attempt to ferret out actual CIA operatives by seeing who will answer super-secret question #3 by accident. |

| Absolutely, 100% correct, despite my tricky numbering scheme! Congrats, Dave bngbuck!
Another tidbit: For years, we've heard bitter complaints from Pakistan's government about the use of Hellfire missiles fired from Predator drones on their territory. But guess who leases(?) us the airfield to do just that?
By the way, the images below were going to be Hint # 1. They show the same airfield in or around 2004, complete with exposed Predators:

Listen, Moonmouth, it's not enough that you publish my secret occupation in the NY Times; now you have trumpeted the most closely guarded secret in American Intelligence, my secret nom de plume. Have you never heard of Scooter Libby and his fate? Look what happened to Novak - first "automobile accidents", then a "brain tumor"! Valerie and I have our connections, you traitor!
How do you suppose Kil feels, Mooner? After all, he IS our control, freak!!
