As a general note, you should take it seriously when forces who blame you for a coup attempt have surrounded a base with ninety nuclear weapons on it. I do hope we have forces ready to protect that.

Not in sufficient strength compared to what's around it, especially if they're willing to take the casualties.
90 tac-nukes are what is known to be there. They must not be permitted to fall into anyone else's grubby paws.
Having said that, it doubtful that Endergen's regime would be foolish enough to tangle with the US over one base. Getting us to clear out would be plenty sufficient, forcing those assets to relocate to Riyadh USAFB or any other close-ish base.
Then they can run in, plant flags everywhere and generally make a patriotic propaganda spectacle to their heart's content.
Incirlik appears to be a shared-custody base, making its nuclear weapons content a high-risk-custody environment under the present circumstances.
One wonders what's going on with the Izmir Air Station. My guess is that it is next on the list.
Additionally, NATO apparently has 22 other bases about Turkey. Add them to the list for requisition...

I'm not sure the caps were necessary, but... interesting. Very interesting.
