Greek Defense Minister Nikos Dendias stated that Greece is on track to possess the strongest armed forces in its modern history. This upgrade will be significantly bolstered by the participation of the Greek defense industry, accounting for at least 25% of all equipment programs. A key component of this modernization involves ensuring that all software for management and interconnection systems remains under Greek ownership. This approach aims to enhance national security and technological independence. The increased defense spending focuses on not only acquiring advanced weaponry but also supporting and developing a robust domestic defense industrial base. This strategy represents a major investment in Greece's long-term defense capabilities and economic growth within the sector.
