List of equipment of the Hellenic Army

The heavy equipment and weaponry of the Hellenic Army is of mostly foreign manufacture, from American, British, French, German and other suppliers. Exception are the Kentaurus and the Leonidas armored fighting vehicles which are built in Greece by the Hellenic Vehicle Industry.

Equipment runs the gamut from state-of-the-art to obsolescent Cold War inventories; the latter are gradually being retired as no funds are available for upgrade. Russian made equipment was received or purchased after the collapse of the Warsaw Pact and second hand US and German equipment was transferred or purchased.

Recent defense spending cuts have had a big impact in operating costs (maintenance, technical support, operational training, transport and supplies). As 80% of the budget is spent on salaries and administrative costs the Hellenic Army faces the challenge of reorganizing its structure. This may lead to closing down some of the 500 military bases scattered across the country and reducing the size of the Army, transforming the Hellenic Army into a smaller but largely professional force.

Under the Force Structure 2005-2020 plan large-scale changes in the Army will be implemented. Only two categories of units will exist: active and mobilized (reserve). No main weapon systems will be allocated to mobilized units.

  • Greece signed a contract with Heckler and Koch, for 112,270 5.56 mm G36 assault rifles. They would replace the G3 as the Army's service rifle. The rifles would be assembled locally by Hellenic Defence Systems (EAS). However the purchase has been frozen and the soldiers continue to use the current G3 rifle.
  • In 2018 a program to upgrade 50.000 G3 rifles begun. The upgrades include new hanguard with R.I.S., new stock and an Aimpoint Red Dot sign and an M203 40mm grenade launcher.
  • The G3 and two versions of the G3A3 and G3A4 is the legendary rifle of the Greek Army (ES). As reported, the procedures for its replacement with a newer and more modern weapon are in progress. The actions take place by the C branch of the General Staff. According to information, a committee has already been set up. The data indicate that the goal is the total renewal of the G3 of the ES with co-production in the Greek Defense Systems and Greece. Such an action will give a construction project to the Greek defense industry with the possibility of co-production. The cost, according to information, is estimated at around 400 million euros and will, of course, be shared over a period of at least a decade.

  • In 1981, Greece ordered 106 Leopard 1A3 GR MBTs plus four armoured recovery vehicles, delivered between 1983 and 1984. Almost 170 Leopard 1Vs were donated by the Netherlands in 1991.
  • In 2003, the Hellenic Army ordered 170 new Leopard 2A6 HEL (Hellenic), to be jointly produced by the German Krauss Maffei and the Greek ELVO firms and delivered between 2006 and 2009.
  • In 2005, Greece purchased 333 used tanks: 183 Leopard 2A4s and 150 Leopard 1A5 main battle tanks from Bundeswehr reserves. This raised the number of Leopard 1 tanks in Greek service to almost 350, and added Leopard 2A4 tanks to Greece’s inventory. A few Leopard 2A4 tanks have been equipped with a 105 mm cannon for training purposes (to exploit the existing large stock of 105mm ammunition), though quick restoration of the original L44 120 mm cannon is possible. Another 98 Leopard 1A5 tanks were delivered as an offset of the total Leopard 2 HEL procurement package.
  • At least 312 M-60A3 were in active service in 2009. M-60 tanks are supposed to be scrapped, sold or retired, as Leopard tanks are replacing them and CFE limit restricts the total number of tanks in service. United States transferred to Greece in 1992-93 358 M60A1 and 312 M60A3 tanks. At least 350 M60 tanks of the Hellenic Army could be donated to Iraq.
  • As of 2004, Hellenic Army tank drivers are mostly professionals, but conscripts are still trained as tank drivers, as well as in all other tank crew stations.
  • In 2011, Greece was interested in buying M1 Abram's tanks, from US stocks. However, the deal was canceled for logistical reasons.
  • About 1,200 M1117 armoured vehicles will probably be donated by US army reserves to the Hellenic armed forces. The vehicles will support the existing mechanised brigades at the Aegean islands.

  • The first version of the 'Leonidas' was the Austrian Saurer 4K 4FA Armored Personnel Carrier built with minor local modifications, built from 1981 until 1987. The 'Leonidas-2' involved extensive modification of the previous model, with the aim to essentially develop it as an Armored Infantry Fighting Vehicle (AIFV). 503 Leonidas vehicles of both versions delivered to Greece and 197 to Cyprus.

  • The Panhard VBL was acquired after the need for armored reconnaissance vehicles was identified by the Army's involvement in peacekeeping operations.
  • There have been rumors about a potential M2 Bradley purchase from the US Army's stock. Furthermore, there have been talks about an Amphibious Assault Vehicle purchase from US Marines' stock, in order to replace small landing craft of the marines. After years of talks, a deal was reached about 9 vehicles alongside 350 Bradley M2A2 ODS IFVs and M1117 4x4 armored with deliveries starting in 2020 onwards.[10][11]
  • The standard BMP-1P Ost will be given to Egypt.

  • In 2000 the Hellenic Army decided to procure 54 vehicle-mounted ASRAD-HELLAS systems. A modular missile system featuring high firepower for day and night operation, each ASRAD-HELLAS weapon system carries four ready-to-fire Stinger missiles and holds an additional four missiles ready for a fast reload. The system is operated by a 2-man team, consisting of the driver, who has the secondary task of air space observer, and the operator of the weapon system.
  • The 23 mm ZU-23 lightweight, automatic, towed antiaircraft gun entered the Army arsenal after years of service with the East German army.
  • The Artemis 30 was originally developed in 1982, to protect all branches of the Armed Forces from medium and low level attack aircraft.
  • With units entering service both from East German and Russian sources, the 9M33 Osa (SA-8) short-range surface-to-air missile system was acquired to maximize the protection offered to Army units. In 1993 Germany gave 12 Osa surface-to-air cvs, meaning 3 batteries. Russia later sold another 20 Osa-AKMs batteries in 1998 and another 7 batteries as an offset for the purchase of the Tor-M1 SAM.
  • Hellenic Hawk Phase II Upgrade Program brought in 1995 42 Greek Hawk launchers (7 batteries) to an updated version. Ten launchers later updated to a more modern version in 1999.

  • The Army is looking to replace AB-205 and UH-1 helicopters in the immediate future.
  • Greece bought ten CH-47Cs for the Army, nine of which were later upgraded by Boeing to the CH-47D standard. In 1999, Greece bought seven more new Boeing CH-47D Chinooks. As of February 2019 and following recent additions, the Greek inventory counts about 30 CH-47DG/SD Chinooks in total.
  • In 1995, 20 AH-64A+ were purchased. In 2003 Greece signed a contract for 12 AH-64D Longbow.
  • The Army is looking to introduce reconnaissance UAVs in the Hellenic Army Aviation to replace the C-12 and Cessna 185 in the immediate future . The Greek made Pegasus 2 is a notable contender with the SPERWER which is currently in use with the Signals branch also being a contender for the army aviation UAV program.
