Poland to host European PAC-3 Patriot interceptor maintenance hub

The US selected Poland to host a new European maintenance facility for PAC-3 Patriot interceptors, creating a regional sustainment hub on NATO’s eastern flank. This is a logistics/industrial innovation aimed at shortening missile repair/turnaround times and improving air-defense readiness by integrating a transatlantic supply chain led with Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden.
