The U.S. Secret
Service requested Avenger air defense units from NORAD and U.S. Northern
Command amid a heightened threat environment.
These
systems, positioned near President Trump's Mar-a-Lago and the local airport,
target drones, low-flying aircraft, and cruise missiles, with added
counter-drone tools.
No specific threat was named, and the deployment arrived in recent days before Trump's visits, layering onto longstanding airspace restrictions and aircraft intercepts.
