ORAC, thanks for that. "In the occupied part of Cyprus" ...wait, didn't Mr Erdogan make a lot of noise in the last few years about "the occupied territories?" (Digression curtailed at this point).
. The Republic of Cyprus does not consider entry or exit via Ercan Airport or by a seaport in the north to be legal.
While I am sure that this would be the topic of a different thread, when I looked up that airport I found that note.
Fun times ahead.

On the practical/military side: a few more assets for CAP helps more than it hurts, right?

For albatross:
I am relying on 30 year old information here, but depending on the make and mod of a given ballistic missile (Theater Ballistic Missile), by this date I suspect that Sig might be in range.
There is an estimate here that with current inventory -- it's about 3200 km to Sicily from Tehran -- that a couple of the missiles have ranges of 4,000 km. or so.
(Simorgh, Ghaem-100). So yes, theoretically Sig is in range.
