Lockheed Martin and Pioneers Technical Systems (PTS) have established Saudi Arabia's first PAC-3 ground depot for the Royal Saudi Air Defense Forces. The facility will provide testing, repair, and certification for PAC-3 launcher components, expected to achieve full operational capability by 2029.

This development will reduce repair cycles and improve operational availability of Integrated Air and Missile Defense systems. The project supports Saudi Vision 2030 by fostering local industrial capabilities. PTS's expertise in electronics and manufacturing will enhance the depot's operations.
