Romanian term or phrase: instalatii de aprovizionare

supply base
Explanation:
Nu zic că e prima variantă care mi-ar fi venit în minte (aș fi spus "supply facility") dar este formularea din... însuși articolul cu pricina.

"In March 2003, two C.I.A. officials surprised Kyle D. Foggo, then the chief of the agency's main European supply base..."

Nu mi se pare greșită nici formularea lui Meirs.
