Redzikowo [rɛd͡ʑiˈkɔvɔ] (German: Reitz)[1] is a village in northern Poland, located in Gmina Słupsk, Słupsk County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, 5 km to the east of Słupsk.
Just to the north of it is the Słupsk-Redzikowo Airport which is the site of a US missile defense complex that was planned to be built by 2012.[2] The original project was cancelled in September 2009.[3] The Aegis Ashore component of the Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System was constructed instead, starting in 2018.[4][5] After some construction delays, the Naval Support Facility-Redzikowo became operational in 2023.[6][7][8][9][10]
