SAMP/T units are starting to relieve PATRIOT as part of NATO package to support Turkey on the Syrian border.

Two Italian SAMP/T are set to replace German PATRIOT in the Turkish city of Kahramanmaraş. After the naval systems developped by Eurosam were deployed off Lybian, Syrian or Iraki coasts, it is time for the land system designed by the European company to make its operational debut out of Italian or French borders.
