¶1. (S) The Honduran Armed Forces (HOAF) do not have any Man
Portable AIR Defense Systems (MANPADS). Likewise, Post is
not aware of any non-state actors in possession of MANPADS in
Honduras. Post believes HOAF would be receptive to
information or training on MANPAD threats. Chad P. Cummins,
POL/MIL Officer, at (504) 238-4641 is the POC at Post.
