October 23. Recently, a civilian airport in Texas, the United States, suddenly ushered in 300 American soldiers and the MIM-104 Patriot air defense missile system. Because they had not received relevant notice in advance, the airport personnel were quite confused.

According to the Russian Satellite News Agency, a civilian airport in the suburbs of Texas suddenly ushered in the Patriot air defense missile system and 300 US soldiers. At the time of the incident, the airport closed a large landing runway. According to reports, under normal circumstances, the US military will deploy the Patriot air defense missile system around sensitive overseas facilities to provide defense support for fighter planes, unmanned aerial vehicles and even missiles. As the airport personnel did not receive the relevant notice in advance, they were very confused about this matter.

“No one knows what happened, they just appeared suddenly.” said a pilot who often flies the plane to stop and use the airport, and other airport personnel also know very little about it. However, they later learned that this was part of the US military’s simulated rapid deployment to overseas operations.
