مركز النقل في مناص Transit Center at Manas (سابقاً قاعدة مناص الجوية Manas Air Base وبصفة غير معتمدة قاعدة گانشي الجوية Ganci Air Base) هي هي منشأة عسكرية تابعة للقوات المسلحة الأمريكية في مطار مناص الدولي، بالقرب من بيشكك، عاصمة قيرغيزستان، وتديرها أساساً القوات الجوية الأمريكية.
The base was opened in December 2001 to support U.S. military operations in the ongoing war in Afghanistan. It has hosted forces from several other International Security Assistance Force member states as well. The base is a transit point for US military personnel coming and going from Afghanistan. The base has good recreation facilities for soldiers (internet cafes, wireless internet, pool tables, free video games, telephones to DSN lines that allow a coalition forces to call their homes at little or no cost). The base has a large dining facility, gymnasium and a chapel. There is even a library where books and magazines are available for the active duty airmen there.
Several events, such as the shooting of a local civilian and rumors of fuel dumping, have led to strained relations with some of the local population. Regional powers such as Russia and China have been pushing for the closure of the base since 2005.
In February 2009 the Kyrgyz Parliament voted to close the base after the two governments failed to agree on a higher rent for the property. American and Kyrgyz officials continued negotiations after the announcement, and on 23 June a tentative agreement was reached. Under the new arrangement the United States will pay $60 million for continued use of the facilities, three times the previous rent. Additionally, Kyrgyz forces now handle security in the areas surrounding the facility while American forces continue to provide security for the facility, and the site is now called a "transit center" instead of an "air base".
