Crete veue of Choice
The Nato Missile Firing
Installation (NAMFI) on the Greek
island of Crete offers high-
quality services for training, test,
experimentation and live firings
with year-round favourable
weather conditions and newly
renovated staging facilities.
A vast area of sea measuring
200km by 100km and
unrestricted airspace provide
the opportunity to test and
fire modern long-range air
defence and advanced tactical
ballistic missile (ATBM) weapon
systems under realistic scenarios,
which include information/
crisis handling, decision-making
processes, site reconnaissance,
deployment phase, live firing
and redeployment phase, while
being constantly evaluated and
graded under strict NATO criteria
enforced by NAMFI’s tactical
firing evaluation section.
