Defence companies in Greece
Greece is running one of Europe's most ambitious procurement programmes, with a €25 billion modernisation plan covering 2025 to 2036 and defence spending already above 3 % of GDP. The Greek Navy is the centrepiece, with new FDI-HN frigates from France, BlueWhale autonomous submarines and a push into AI-enabled maritime systems for operations across the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean. Greece requires at least 25 % of new equipment investment to flow into domestic industry, which is building a base for local companies in shipbuilding, electronics and unmanned systems.
