NATO Sending Additional Patriot Air Defense to Turkey -- WSJ

Dow Jones03-18

By Jared Malsin

NATO is deploying another Patriot air-defense battery in Turkey, the country's defense ministry said, bolstering the alliance's air defenses that previously shot down three missiles fired by Iran.

The additional system is being sent to Adana province in southern Turkey, where it will be stationed alongside an existing Patriot battery belonging to Spain, a Turkish military spokesman said.

Adana is the location of a major airbase that hosts U.S. troops along with American nuclear weapons. The base was the target of the first of three Iranian missile attacks on Turkey since the war began. North Atlantic Treaty Organization air defenses intercepted all three attacks.

Turkey last week said the alliance was deploying a Patriot battery near an early-warning radar station in eastern Turkey that is used to detect incoming Iranian missiles.
