We do not have large quantities in Patriots to give to third countries. Would you give anti-aircraft & anti-ballistic systems leaving a gap in your air defense? The question is whether anyone will attack us? The point is that a national security vacuum is being created!

Finally, the Greek State decided to strip the Greek air defense! As if the Patriots are more than us!

I do not think the number should go up. This move by Greece was immature, without a plan and with political expediencies. If the Hellenic Air Force had the slightest involvement in this market then it would ask for 40 Rafale for 4 billion euros in order to replace the Mirage 2000 and the...

Depending on the order in which the negotiation took place. If the Greek Government had from the beginning the intention to receive 24 fighters and just wanted the last 6 to be announced with co-production in Greece then it was a smart move on the part of Greek diplomacy. But because here in...

It is important to announce the delivery schedule and whether there will be co-production in Greece with transfer of know-how. These are the most important things that need to be done.

There must be domestic development of subsystems for this MRAP because the technology it possesses is not Greek but of foreign origin.

A people, even if it does not have the same racial roots, has every legal and moral right to defend the state entity it has created. No one has the right to decide on the partition of another country. In the aftermath of the American-French Revolution and the Enlightenment, such political...

The 2nd maintained S-70B6 was delivered to the Hellenic Navy. The third helicopter has already started its upgrade and will be delivered in September. https://www.ptisidiastima.com/2nd-s70b-delivered-to-hellenic-navy/

The following is a brief list of 97 Greek companies participating in DEFEA - Defense Exhibition Athens: -AEGEAN PROJECTS (integrated solutions, analyzes and investigations) -AEROSPACE MANAGEMENT AND SUPPORT GR (logistics and support services for civil and military aviation) -AETHER AERONAUTICS...

I did not mention that Greece should do something on its own but with the contribution of the EU. A serious and dignified government in Greece would do the following: 1) Freezing of remittances from Greece to Pakistan 2) Start of gradual deportation of illegal Pakistanis with illegal activities...

Massacres and looting in the northern & southern part of Cyprus have always taken place between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots. The essence is different. A state cannot officially say through one of its embassies (while it has not recognized the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus) that it...

According to 2020 data, Greece imports goods worth 73.3 million $ from Pakistan, while Pakistan imports goods worth 39.65 million $ from Greece. https://tradingeconomics.com/greece/imports-by-country https://tradingeconomics.com/pakistan/imports-by-country The fact that Greece imports more from...

This is an official challenge from Pakistan to Greece & Republic of Cyprus as no state officially recognizes the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, except for Turkey. There should be strong criticism from the EU on the Pakistani side and deportation of their Ambassadors + financial sanctions...

When the Turkish Air Force has direct internal access to Rafale, anything can happen. Unlocking weapons systems code is nothing new.

The response of the aircraft in terms of combat software, its technical characteristics but also its weapons (not theoretical but practical) and of course the detectable trace left on the radar + the quality level of maneuvering it has.

In this case, Turkey may not have the Rafale in its arsenal, but Qatar offered them to it, the 16 Rafale of Qatar is not a random choice as they "equalize" the Greek Rafale that will be acquired.

The main reason why many in Greece supported the purchase of French Rafale fighters was the fact that their advantages are unknown to the Turkish Air Force. This gives the Greek Air Force an advantage and puts in a difficult position the Turkish pilots who have not faced the Rafale in the field...

This would be a good choice if we were going as Greece to strategic know-how transfer agreements with France, the Netherlands and the USA with the aim of developing-building a purely Greek frigate. The leasing would make sense if the Greek Armed Forces were going in a direction of total...

The French FDI frigates are ships that will come in 6 years so we can not pay 3.5 billion euros as an intermediate solution. The US with the Ticonderoga frigates is a very good solution but not feasible because the ships with all the strategic weapons at their disposal will not be given.

The release dates of the first Dutch frigate Karel Doorman(class M) according to exclusive information are postponed for much later than the expected time point that the Hellenic Navy had as information. Thus the first Dutch frigate will be available for transfer to the Greek Navy not in 2022...
