    • نبذة مختصرة :
      The article presents information on the defense of Iceland. When the country became a founding member of North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in 1949, it did so on the understanding that it would not be expected to establish an indigenous force. Its main contribution to the common defense effort has been the rent-free provision of sites such as the NATO Naval Air Station at Keflavik which was manned primarily by U.S. forces. Units from other NATO countries also deployed temporarily.
