[De Manlio Dinucci] In the fiscal year of 2020, 1.8 billion dollars were allocated to the enhancement of this system, including the sites in Romania and Poland. Other land-based and sea-based installations of the Aegis system will be deployed not only in Europe against Russia, but also in Asia and the Pacific against China. According to the plans, Japan will install, on its own territory, two missile sites furnished by the USA, and South Korea and Australia will also buy warships of the same system from the USA.Furthermore, during the three months in which the Deveselu equipment was taken to the USA in order to be «updated», a battery of mobile THAAD missiles from the US land army was deployed in the Romanian site, with the capacity to «shoot down an extra-atmospheric ballistic missile», but also to launch long-range nuclear missiles.
