List of equipment of the Hellenic Army information
Most of the heavy equipment and weaponry of the Hellenic Army is either of foreign manufacture, or of foreign design, license built in Greece, in addition to few domestically developed equipment. Countries of origin include the United States, France, Germany, Russia and others. The few domestically produced armored vehicles include the ELBO Leonidas APC. However, in recent years, there have been some efforts for new developments by the Greek Defence Industry, such as the new Hoplite MRAP by EODH.[1]
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[2][3] defence 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.
