in 1960s the strategy changed. The missiles in turkey destabilized the region and subs were taking over. Jupiters and Vanguards were the missiles that blew up on the pad and allowed the soviets to get the edge with sputnik. Dont you remember those flop over vanguards and the off direction jupiters.

"The only difference is the range, the Jupiter is shorter, but then being based in Turkey they did not have to go halfway around the world."

Great. Now, let's take this chain of logic one more step. The Atlas can go halfway around the world.

So why base them in Turkey?
