LONDON, February 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --



Supported by the Polish MoD, Integrated Air & Missile Defence 2013 will provide a platform for Bumar Elektronika, Kongsberg, Rheinmetall and Saab to showcase solutions for the growing missile threat.

With the recent confirmation of NATO's Patriot missile batteries now in operational use on the Turkey-Syrian border, the comprehension of missile attacks has never been more real.  NATO's quick response to Turkey's pleas, highlights how imminent the threat of incoming missiles is now regarded.  All nations regardless of their size are now prioritising their investment in the modernisation of their current missile defence systems.
