Tarnak Farms refers to a former Afghan training camp near Kandahar.
The camp is very near the Kandahar airport.
The Al-Qaeda camp is alleged to have offered training constructing bombs, using poisons, urban warfare, and assassination. American counter-terrorism analysts assert that their sources claim all the camp's trainees had to attend Al Qaeda's Al Farouq camp first. American counter-terrorism analysts assert that their sources claim that all trainees have to be prepared to serve as suicide bombers.
After the United States forces took over the airport they used the ruins for their own training exercises.
