Solenzara Air Base (BA 126) is a French military airfield operated by the French Air and Space Force, located on the eastern coast of Corsica near the commune of Solenzara. It sits along a stretch of coastline south of Bastia and serves primarily as a tactical aviation base supporting French defense operations. The base has historically hosted fighter aircraft and has been used for rapid deployment and intervention missions in support of French and NATO operations. Its strategic position in the Mediterranean makes it a valuable asset for projecting air power across the region. While the airfield carries the IATA code SOZ, it is not a commercial passenger airport and does not operate scheduled civilian flights. Any civilian use is strictly limited and subject to military authorization.
