Greece has received two new Rafale F32 jets from France, the Hellenic Air Force General Staff announced on Tuesday, on the name-day of its patron saint Archangel Michael.
The two new fighter jets will be incorporated into the 332 All-Weather Squadron of the 114 Combat Wing, based at Tanagra Air Base north of Athens.
They will be joining the 6 used Rafale F3Rs Greece received in January 2022.
In September 2021, Greece increased its order of Dassault-made Rafale jets to 24 from originally 18.
I still wish they would invest in wildfire fighting planes instead, like the Russian one they used to borrow before the war.
All this military spending, combined with gas exploration and tension with Turkey makes me nervous.
