Greece’s security council, KYSEA, is expected to grant final approval on Thursday for a procurement deal involving a multi-layer air defence system from Israel, worth up to €3.5 billion (about $4 billion), along with several types of drones, according to Reuters sources cited by multiple outlets. The council provided initial approval earlier this year, and a knowledgeable official said KYSEA is expected to approve the procurement contracts for the arrangement. The reports describe the project as part of broader efforts to modernize Greece’s armed forces. One outlet also notes that Greece plans to spend around €28 billion by 2036 on defence upgrades, including acquisitions such as US F-35 fighter jets and frigates from France and Italy. The available information does not specify which specific drone models or air-defence components are included in the package, nor does it provide details on delivery timelines or system specifications. Overall, the sources converge on the same key points: the planned KYSEA final approval date, the Israeli supplier, the up to €3.5 billion value, and the inclusion of drones.
